Pls, no 8086 :-) Anyways, nobdy answered the question which i need to be answer the most.... Should i start wid 2.6 progg or 2.4. And as far as Minix goes, its not used, won't it be hard to test & run its proggs? FC2T3 is just a platform i like. I also know that its a test version :-) And anybdy already into kernel progg, can suggest some good books based on his own experience? As i would have to buy books from my own pocket money :-( Anyways, thanx guys...
