From Power Up To Bash Prompt

Welcome to the home page of From Power Up To Bash Prompt. The current version is 0.9, and was uploaded on 5 November 2000. Yeah, that was quite a while ago, and I'm hoping to get around to creating a new version real soon. The new version will be more Debian oriented, cover the 2.4 kernels, and use the docbook format that the LDP are so keen on.
