Couple of questions.
Right now I am a Microfocus COBOL programmer, working on a HP-UX system. I want to now get Certified as a HP Certified Systems Administrator. I ordered a book from amazon and will start with it. I also will be working at my job with someone who applies the patches and things as we do NOT have a real UNIX admin! So I will get some experience at work. At home I would like a way to practice what I read. Is this possible? Is there a version of linux close enough that I can install and practice on?
One other thing...I was never good at learning from books...Any suggestions on the best way to study and practice to get ready for the test?
Thanks so much.....

DESCRIPTION
axiom is a fomerly proprietary, newly open-source, interactive computer algebra program. Opensource axiom now has support for both graph-
ics and the hyperdoc help system. Please refer to these facilities for detailed usage instructions. This manual page was written for the
Debian distribution because the original program does not have a manual page.
A good but slightly out of date source of documentation can be found in the book Axiom: The Scientific Computation System, by Richard D.
Jenks and Robert S. Sutor available through amazon.com. A pdf version of this book is now included in the axiom-doc package.
