There are so many things you might run into that I don't know how a course could possibly cover more than the very basics (using Bash, basic commands, etc.) Miguel has a good blog post on learning Linux. http://tirania.org/blog/archive/2011/Sep-06.html http://tirania.org/blog/archive/2011/Sep-06.html Another great resource is to pick up a Linode VPS and go through the library. http://library.linode.com/ http://library.linode.com/ I owe a lot of my start in Linux to the Slicehost articles but Slicehost is going away as it gets eaten by Rackspace. Skip the courses, they are a waste of time.
