I’ve started a new plan to learn about operating system internals.
I’ve got a pretty high score for the operating system class when I was in school, however, that’s only the theory. I read the first edition of the Minix book when I was in school, but didn’t finish that before I return it to the library. And I did some RTOS work during my last employee time. That’s quite different from a generic OS.
The road map will be Minix 2 -> Minix 3 -> NetBSD. I begin with Minix 2 because I only have the paper book of Minix2. There’s no Minix3 book selling in China. And finish in NetBSD because it’s quite famous for it’s clean design and code.
As usual, when I start to do something, I join their mail lists. This time it’s the famous news://comp.os.minix.
Don’t know how long will this last, or even if I could finish it, but, well, let’s start.
