I picked up this book primarily on the O'Reilly name, which rarely fails me. I was quite disappointed with this book however. The author makes broad assumptions that every step during installation will succeed, saying nothing about what to do if it fails. Most of the problem in working with Linux is getting it installed, and yet a small percentage of the book is actually put towards installation and possible problems. Canned commands are offered without explaining them fully, and meanwhile the actual CD is not truly Debian 2.1.
