All material written by Jeremy Anderson on this site is copyrighted. I used to have a scary copyright notice on this stuff, but I took it down. Heck, if you steal it from me, I'll probably never know. Please don't. I ask only that you cite me as the source of material upon which you do not improve. If you end up writing out the world's greatest Linux textbook, then I'd appreciate it if you'd send me a copy, and maybe mention me briefly somewhere as a guy who gave you a starting point. Happy trails :)
