| |
| The need for a document like this one became apparent in the |
| linux-kernel mailing list as the same questions, asking for pointers |
| to information, appeared again and again. |
| |
| Fortunately, as more and more people get to GNU/Linux, more and more |
| get interested in the Kernel. But reading the sources is not always |
| enough. It is easy to understand the code, but miss the concepts, the |
| philosophy and design decisions behind this code. |
| |
| Unfortunately, not many documents are available for beginners to |
| start. And, even if they exist, there was no "well-known" place which |
| kept track of them. These lines try to cover this lack. All documents |
| available on line known by the author are listed, while some reference |
| books are also mentioned. |
| |
| PLEASE, if you know any paper not listed here or write a new document, |
| send me an e-mail, and I'll include a reference to it here. Any |
| corrections, ideas or comments are also welcomed. |
| |
| The papers that follow are listed in no particular order. All are |
| cataloged with the following fields: the document's "Title", the |
| "Author"/s, the "URL" where they can be found, some "Keywords" helpful |
| when searching for specific topics, and a brief "Description" of the |
| Document. |
| |
| Enjoy! |
