I've just taken delivery of a handful of N800s primarily to be used as zone controllers for a Slimserver network.

To date I've managed to avoid touching Linux in any form apart from a brief encounter about 20 years ago. I thought this might be an opportunity to acquaint myself with the OS and customising it to suit.

Where do I start? I don't even know How to launch a command shell yet so I really do need a basic reference.

for linux basics, start with a live-cd. you can play with the linux os without having to install it, and without messing up a windoze installation. there are many available. download the .iso image and burn it to cd, then boot off that cd
