Good that you have completed the book. Install Solaris or any other Unix variant (if you have money, go and buy some UNIX machine may be on eBay). First, start practicing what you have learned. Then, start doing nasty things on the machine. Try to understand the kind of error messages you get, try to fix the issue. You will learn a lot more than you can think in that way. I have seen many people cramming commands and all. I lough at them. What's the use if you do not know why and when to use them?

Break n Fix is what I have followed all the time. Best of luck! Smilie
