I could start by following the whole <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tanenbaum%E2%80%93Torvalds_debate">Tanenbaum–Torvalds debate</a> on kernel architecture <a href="http://groups.google.com/group/comp.os.minix/browse_thread/thread/c25870d7a41696d2/f447530d082cd95d?tvc=2">since 1992</a> ;), but I think I found a better way:</p> <p><a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0131429388">Operating Systems Design and Implementation</a> by Tanenbaum and Woodhull, which interestingly contains abridged code of the whole <a href="http://www.minix3.org/">Minix 3 OS</a>. </p> Wed, 26 May 2010 07:58:00 -0700 urn:uuid:3fc88a2d-667a-40b5-b47b-20e26993f3f2 Maciej Kołodziej http://blog.mkolodziej.net/articles/2010/05/26/%E2%80%9Clive-as-if-you-were-to-die-tomorrow-learn-as-if-you-were-to-live-forever-%E2%80%9D-mahatma-gandhi http://blog.mkolodziej.net/articles/trackback/18666
