Goto the Kol Zeev in the canyon . they have a HUGE amount of sysadmin books,
Internet HTML publishing and UNIX.
They currently have an excellent very small book (147 pages) which costs 129
shekels, and is worth the price. Comes with a CD.
Covers installation, and on one of the first pages is a list of ALL hardware
types supported. Go there and take a look.
