Hello Sergio,

thanks for your interest in HelenOS.

most MINIX code). So I would like some book were I could learn all the
necessary , or at least the basics, for HelenOS development.

Unfortunately, there is no specific book on HelenOS development. Generally speaking, the books from Andy Tanenbaum are not bad (especially the later ones [1]), although they are more or less MINIX specific. But they still provide a reasonable overview of the general principles.

If you are looking for a list of minimum knowledge, the Wikipedia page [2] and its references is a good start.

[2] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microkernel

As a side note I would to
help in the desktop part (graphics, applications ...) so if someone can
send me info about that it would be really helpful.

The best source of information for the GUI part of HelenOS is the master thesis that is describing it:

If you have any specific questions, please do not hesitate to send a query to the mailing list.


M.D.
