    For beginners... I just installed Centos 6 and want to learn Linux in general, but in the end have a "small", text based (no GUI) server (PHP, MySQL etc...).

    I looked at "Linux all-in-one for dummies" and "Practical guide to Linux, 2nd edition", but none of them seem to be easy to read.

    There are books out there on difficult topics that are easy to read and some on topic that are easy that are hard to go through if you know what I mean...

    Thanks in advance for any info.

    Check out Linux Bible 2011 Edition. Its recent and has the information you need.

    There are so many free resources online. It should not be necessary to purchase a book to get basic information. Personally, I would start here: http://tldp.org/
