That's a bit of a tall order...although there are a lot of "common" commands between all the versions, there are a lot of variables that are different. Generally speaking if you learn one you can learn them all. I would recommend you pick a version of Unix/Linux you want to start learning with, install it on a computer, then look for the reference material.
