And if it were 100 pages, that's be great. But it's 611 pages in very nearly A4 format, sans index and advertizing for other great ORA books. This isn't Debian specific naturally and is designed to be complete enough to work for getting you able to use slackware if you wished to... => It could probably be done for Debian alone in 200 pages if you talk about the debian way of doing things.. Like compiling a kernel? That becomes a page or two if you explain how to use kernel package. =>
