The whole section 3.6.3 seems to deal with Chapter 4 and beyond.
Section 3.6.1 wasn't too bad.
Section 3.6.2 caused me a lot of confusion, see the thread "PATH".
Section 3.6.3- the /proc directory is pretty cool.
2. What CPU is the system running on? I used $ cat /proc/cpuinfo
3. How much RAM does it currently use? I used $ cat /proc/meminfo
4. How much swap space do you have? I used $ cat /proc/swaps
5. What drivers are loaded? I used $ lsmod
6. How many hours has the system been running? I used $ top
7. Which filesystems are known by your system?  ??
8. Question that Geoff Jones is asking above. ??
9. What services should be running in this level?  ??
10. Which services run in graphical mode that don't run in text mode?  ??
11. How long does the system keep the log file in which user logins are
monitored? I used $ cat logrotate.conf  but it might be $ cat login.defs
What did you get?
