I have looked into it myself and the following basic info may be of help.

The certification at each of three levels requires you to sit 2 mostly 
multiple choice exams of approx 70 questions each.  They cost US$100 each.

www.lpi.org is the website and there are links form there for examination 
sites etc.  You can also mail info at lpi.org

O'Reilly do a good LPI certification book as do Coriolis (exam prep)

The subject matter in the exam is mostly sys admin stuff but requires a lot 
of knowledge about bash related tools including some of the text 
processing tools like sed and awk.  The O'Reilly book gives a good intro to 
the syllabus.  As does the lpi website.

Cheers

Andrew
