Hi Guru... Now, I'm trying to understand FreeBSD kernel. For me, the "darkest" side of the source is the part that use 386 assembly languge, (the lower side of the kernel). And I heard that Bill Jolitz has a book that describe it's 386BSD basic kernel, which cover that story. The book title's "Source Code Secrets : The Basic Kernel (Operating System Source Code Secrets, Vol 1) ". My question is : 1. Is this book still suitable for FreeBSD. I mean that If I read about, how the kernel load to memory, how the system start up, about context switch, lower level of memory manager. Is that useful to understand FreeBSD way. 2. Is thera any resource in Internet, that I can use to understand that.
