I think it's an excellent idea.
Can help the beginners, and we were all beginners once, didn't we?
Even if the Linux forums are filled with help for those beginners, it can be useful.


In fact you would even need two 'howto's, one with the basics, for the absolute beginners.
And one for those who want to know more, with elaborate instructions.

Question is:
For what Linux, even if they all based on almost the same principle, each distri has his own particularities.
I usually send absolute beginners to one the appropiate Linux forums about their own distri when they ask for help, but having a general howto on the site would certainly be helpfull, I think.
