I just recentely upgraded

I would say that books are your best friend for getting information that is
complete and correct.  Also, if there are local college classes in Computer
Science ( Compilers, Operating Systems, Machine Architecture), arranging to
audit one or more of them might be handy.  Paid Training (Learning Tree,
etc, ...) tends to be very specific and may not give the "big picture" feel
that you seek.  I also want to put in a "me too" on everything that Adam
said about the classic books and learning to program.

BTW: there is no Linux 7.2 (Not yet, anyway).  The current kernel (which RMS
and others would say is the only thing that you can "call" Linux) is at
release 2.4.X (where X > 17).  Virtually every other package included in a
modern distribution has its own version.  For ease of conversation people
often refer to the release level of a popular distribution when describing a
problem, but the number is meaningless without the distribution. I would
guess you meant "Redhat 7.2"

Best of luck in your quest for knowledge.
