When it was time to write the 2nd edition (2015) of Linux Phrasebook, I took several sections—and even two entire chapters—out of what had been in the first edition. I made a deal with my editor, however, that I could put those sections on my website so that people could still access them if they wanted. Here you can find those sections from the first edition (2005) of Linux Phrasebook.
