    Any basic Unix guide books and web based infoormation are good start if
    you have not read them. Scroll down link here to see my recommendation
    list:

     http://qref.sourceforge.net/Debian/reference/ch-support.en.html#s-references

    Oh, I wrote one specifically for Debian (or I should say with some
    merging of existing information to make one central user document for
    Debian).

    Debian Reference
     http://qref.sourceforge.net/
      * This has a newer version.
      * Translation may contain older information.
         (Oops, that reminds me to rebuild them with the latest translations)
     
     http://www.debian.org/doc/user-manuals#quick-reference
      * This is the old version.
      * Due to DDP project CVS issues, it is not updated recently.

    Also all the document listed in
     http://www.debian.org/doc/
    shall be the good start.

    Osamu
