Can anyone steer me to any others? I don't know of any books, but you can download the Guix manual in PDF form= at to learn about Guix, the package manager, and Guix System, the full GNU = operating system (https://guix.gnu.org/manual/en/guix.pdf). That could help= if you don't have regular access to the Internet. As for GNOME, if you decide to install Guix System with the GNOME desktop e= nvironment, once you log in to the desktop you will be presented with some = Getting Started videos and documentation. You can then search the complete = GNOME Help and other kind of documentation as you need it.
