[Novalug] RHCE Material

[Jim Sheafer]

I liked "Red Hat Certified Engineer Linux Study Guide" by Michael Jang. I
spent about a week before I took the class going through the book (and CD)
and doing the exercises on a scratch machine (this was RHEL 4, before
Virtual machines were around). When I went to the class, I used my book to
clarify what I didn't understand from the course materials. I took both
sample tests included.

I passed.

RHEL6 is out soon, so I'd wait. Get a book, build a VM and test yourself
over and over (the test is hands on and timed - they broke a machine and
handed it to me to fix). Then signup for a class + test after 6 is released
(in the new year, I think).
