Re: Developing Kernel Code newbie

I'm in a similar situation here.. a C/C++ beginner, very keen to work on the Linux kernel.
Those two books you mentioned, the latest editions cover the 2.4 series kernel. Would reading these still be useful for working on the 2.6 (and onwards) kernels?

Thanks.

Hi,
I've recently started development on the Linux Kernel, and wondered if
there's any kernel-dev FAQ/Howto/online courses/etc to help me get started
with debugging techniques. Any help would be greatly appreciated.


Understanding the Linux Kernel and Linux Device Drivers (free online I
think) are 2 good books to start with. Also www.kernelnewbies.org.
