Here is a link to their current Unix catalog page;

http://www.netg.com/Catalog_cms/topi...p=6&c=10&s=246

The titles I got are no longer listed. From memory (meaning I have the subjects right but the exact wording may be slightly off) they were:

Intro to Unix
Unix - Intermediate Topics
Unix - Advanced Topics
Unix System Administration
Advanced Unix System Administration
TCP/IP Networking
Unix Shell Programming

They are general courses on Unix, not a specific flavor. I see in their current catalog that they have specific courses for Linux, Solaris, SCO, and HP/UX. I think what I got may be better if you're just starting out and want to get a good foundation instead of concentrating on one particular variety of Unix, but I guess that is a matter of opinion.

As far as Sun being the way to go, I agree to a point. I see as many job listings for Sun in my area as Linux, AIX and HPUX combined. However, knowing multiple Unix OSes is the best way to go, most medium to big companies will have more than one vendor in their datacenter.

A final note - if you're interested in Unix as a career path stick with it. You have to be smart and willing to always work hard and learn. But once you can get a job and some experience under your belt it can be a great career. Just always keep up on the technical side of things and don't let yourself fall behind. I have lots of friends who have been unemployed for a long time because their skillsets aren't as popular any more.

install-solaris(1M)													       install-solaris(1M)

NAME

       install-solaris - install the Solaris operating system

SYNOPSIS

       install-solaris

       install-solaris	invokes  the  Solaris  Install	program. Depending on graphical capability and available memory at the time of invocation,
       install-solaris invokes either a text-based installer or a graphical installer.

       The following minimum requirements for physical memory dictate which features are available during installation:

       For SPARC machines:

       128 MB

	   Minimum physical memory for all installation types

       128 MB

	   Minimum physical memory required for windowing system

       384 MB

	   Minimum physical memory required for graphical-based installation

       For x86 machines:

       256 MB

	   Minimum physical memory for all installation types

       256 MB

	   Minimum physical memory required for windowing system

       512 MB

	   Minimum physical memory required for graphical-based installation

       In some cases, even if the minimum physical memory is present, available virtual memory after system startup can limit the number  of  fea-
       tures available.

       install-solaris	exists	only  on  the Solaris installation media (CD or DVD) and should be invoked only from there. Refer to the  for more
       details.

       install-solaris allows installation of the operating system onto any standalone system. install-solaris loads the software available on the
       installation media. Refer to the  for disk space requirements.

       Refer to the  for more information on the various menus and selections.

       See attributes(5) for descriptions of the following attributes:
