| Very easy exam. I didn't use any specific book to study, but the default books by Sybex or some similarly respected publisher should be fine. | |

| thanks Papiya. maybe the exam is very easy for you, but i am truely a linux newbie, what book should i use and what should i do to prepare for it? | |
|
| if you are a linux newbie, please do not learn linux with a certification book.
buy books like
running linux,
or distro specific books like redhat linux bibles etc which are all suitable. and in the process of learning to use linux, you will be more than equipped to tackle linux+. | |

| ExamCram Linux+ is great for the exam. Michael Jang (the author) is really good in my opinion. | |

| I'd definitely go with the Exam Cram2 book. | |

| Also, RedHat has some great manuals here. Might not be a bad idea to read them. | |

I would recommend "Running Linux", but be prepared for a long, hard period of adjustment. It's detailed, but sometimes a bit much for a newbie, but if you can finish it, you will know what Linux is capable of and feel right at home with it.
Good luck. | |
