Hello all,

I have decided to take my RHCSA instead of Linux+. the reason is not much of a ROI, and no employers are really asking for Linux+ LPIC etc... So I really don't see the need to get a cert that will just end up being a piece of paper that wont get me a Linux Admin job. I plan on studying Linux+ for the knowledge and basics of the OS.... But I will not sit for the exam... I will instead sit for my RHCSA exam instead.... Are there any good books or study materials reccomended for the RHCSA??? For those that have the cert already what did you use to study? Im looking to learn and apply the materials so I have CentOS running on Vmware player on my PC.... but im thinking of buying a cheap laptop and just installing CentOS on it only....

    Myself and others have answered these questions many times on the LPI/RHCE/SAIR forum.

    If you're able to, I would buy a cheap laptop so that you can familiarize yourself with building KVM vms on RHEL. Also agree with Verities; lots of information in the LPI/RHCE/SAIR forum.
