hi all.
hi
i'm a beginner at UNIX/LINUX.presently i have opensuse 10.3 installed
on my computer.i am basically a c/cpp/java programmer and soon would
be joining the IT industry.i am very enthusiastic about the shell and
would like to study unix\linux through the command line.along with
that i would also like to study operating systems in depth with hands-
on and practical approach on linux\unix OSs.for this reason i have
picked up an operating systems book by gary nutt which teaches through
examples of unix\windows and for reference i have 'the unix
programming environment' by Brian Kernighan but i'm not finding the my
OS book to be providing me with solid concrete concepts ( although it
has good examples and very good lab exercises).

look on this book (you can download it legally and for free)http://www.advancedlinuxprogramming.com
dont forget about ithttp://www.linux-foundation.org/en/Specifications

1)how much is unix different from linux? i know linux is a simulation
of unix and i can see its source code but is it advisable to learn
from a unix book and practise on linux ? i want to learn both .

prabably the best solution would be to unix on virtual machine.
personally i suggest minix (1-3)

http://www.minix3.org/

or you can always install freebsd on second partition of hdd ;p

2)kindly suggest 2-3 simple,good(not at all boring),usefull and
standard books or/and sites for unix and linux.

hm... in addition to ebooks i gave you, read also about FHShttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filesystem_Hierarchy_Standard
its usefull to know that :P (at least its usefull for me ;p)

3)kindly suggest 2-3 simple,good and conceptual books or/and sites for
operating systems that teach the subject through unix\linux approach.
thanking in anticipation. vaib.
