First two questions: There are many good sources for information about
linux.  Use on of the basic net indexing services like YAHOO to find them.
Look at both linux and unix sites. 
The equivalent to DOS cd is cd.  The equivalent to dir is ls

Question three: As far as I can tell any linux and or Debian use issue or
question is acceptable. (Some questions may be more appropriate for one of
the other lists. Developement questions for example)

Since you are a beginner I recommend spending the $10 and buying one of
the cds

Have fun
