Which is the smallest Unix operating system and how do I download it?

Q. I just want to practice Unix commands and start learning shell scripting and what is kernel. Cold you tell me the earliest and/or the smallest version of Unix, I Don't need Graphical User interface for the time being. I need the Unix to be the smallest to be practiced in with smallest space required for RAM and Hard disk.
Thanks Martino I will try that but could you tell me any version of Unix that is of the size about 2 MB like MS Dos.

A. You could try Minix 2.0, which is available in floppy disk images for 8088 or 80386, or Cygwin, which is a Unix-like shell environment for Windows.

What is a good and free tutorial on using Unix covering the basics as well as some more advanced features?
Q. I would like the tutorial to be comprehensive and help me build a better foundation when working in a Unix terminal. I currently use a unix shell quite frequently and know basic commands but would like to expand my knowledge of using the terminal.

Include any cool tips or tricks you know.
Thank you. This is very useful.

How do I hook up to a HP UNIX system using a XP Windows PC and run applications using VPN?
Q. We have an HP UNIX system (1986 - 1993) that is running software on it. I am at a remote site and connect to the network using VPN. After connecting to the network using VPN, I can telnet to the HP UNIX station, but cannot run any applications. I need to run a UNIX system software package, as though I am sitting behind the XP Windows system - Is this possible? What software would be required, and how would I go about hooking it up to make it work?

A. You should be able to create a telnet session to the Unix box right from your desktop (without using the VPN), using something like Attachmate's Reflections.

You can use the VPN then to connect to the network and run your applications.
