We have worked with the linux kernel but not that much with the FBSD one.So,currently we do not have much knowledge about the FBSD kernel. Can we get any pointers as to, where we should start from ? and which kernel subsystems will be of particular importance to us.Also, which version of FBSD should we preferably use ? Any links for reading would be of immense help.We currently have for reference,the book 'The Design and Implementation of the FreeBSD(v5.2) Operating System' - Marshall Kirk McKusick, George V. Neville-Neil TIA.
