I myself am studying for the LPIC 1 (junior level) and am using this book which covers also the LPIC2 (advanced level).<br />

<br />
its very well written (easy english, easy to follow) and has some exercises in it. There may be better books (going deeper / better adapted to latest changes in the LPI Certification) but this is a good all round book.<br />
<br />
pay attention since there is also a third edition of this book just covering the LPIC1 exams.<br />

Break Fix Practice for Linux

A Linux distribution is an operating system made as a software collection based on the Linux kernel and, often, on a package management system and are available for a variety of systems. A typical Linux distribution comprises a Linux kernel, GNU tools and libraries, additional software, documentation, a window system (the most common being the X Window System), a window manager, and a desktop environment. Most Linux systems are open-source software made available both as compiled binaries and in source code form, allowing modifications to the original software. Over three hundred distributions are in active development, including commercially backed distributions (such as Fedora, openSUSE and Ubuntu) and community-driven distributions (such as Debian, Slackware, Gentoo and Arch Linux).

Linux Distributions

The variety of Linux distributions creates myriad issues relating to configuration and operations when computers are networked, not the least of which is the use of various network management applications, some of which are included with specific distributions, while others are standalone applications.
