I just wrote this guide for the beginners forum. I hope it'll be of help for anyone who doesn't like entering code - show it to friends who are just starting out on ubuntu. :)

It's a good guide. I like it. I'm not sure if you're already planning to add it but it would be good if you added the basic commands such as cd, pwd, cat, ls, etc.

I'll think about it. The point I made in the guide is that most users of an OS will not NEED to know these commands, and may find this even further out of their depth. This guide is just something to get them on the right lines, so to speak.
