Introduction

Category:Books with print version#Sidux
The book will show you how to install Debian unstable "sid" in a quick
and painless way using Sidux LiveCD, its basic configuration and
the most important - useful applications - even the best operation system
is useless on a home computer without a theme.
I used Sidux 2009-04 Moros "Μόρος" for my work of the book.
You can use most of the commands I show here with all operating systems based on Debian.
