Learn Raspberry Pi with Linux will
tell you everything you need to know about the Raspberry
Pi's GUI and command line so you can get started doing
amazing things. You'll learn how to set up your new
Raspberry Pi with a monitor, keyboard and mouse, and
you'll discover that what may look unfamiliar in Linux

toward being a Raspberry Pi expert by learning how to
get around at the Linux command line. You'll learn about
different shells, including the bash shell, and commands
that will make you a true power user.
Finally,
you'll learn how to create your first Raspberry Pi
projects:
- Making a Pi web server: run LAMP on your own
