[RHCE] Book for Study Group

[David B. Rankin]

Look at http://lists.freegeek.org/listinfo/lpi-study and
http://209.61.182.150/certification.htm for information and ideas.  I am
currently studying using Exam Cram 2 LPIC I, ISBN 0-7897-3127-4,
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/0789731274/103-4140624-9499859?v=glance

I also have the O'Reilly and Dean Books http://www.lpi.org/en/books.html 
for info on what is available. They are both old and the test
objectives have changed since their printing.  I believe the Exam Cram 
is the newest book availale and other LPI study groups are using the 
text as well.
