[dba-Tech] Linux Newbie in Distress

Ah John, always the optimist with the "bon mot"! <grin> 

Of course, if we were setting up Windows from scratch, we would be 
having similar issues.  I suppose it is a good thing, though, to get 
down this much closer to the foundations of an OS and learn what really 
goes on.  I need to know this stuff, so I will learn it.  Then, I'll 
trade you knowledge for knowledge.  Every time you describe a new setup 
with virtual machines inside virtual machines processing millions of 
records in seconds, or you craft some brilliant solution to a database 
problem, I quietly salute you and dream of the day when I know what you 
know.  It tickles me silly on the odd occasion when I know something you 
don't and I get to share it with you.  You and the other genius gurus on 
this list are my heroes.
