The first volumes of the Intel and AMD architecture manuals are far from "raw datasheets". In fact they're quite well written as brief introduction of x86 assuming you have some basic knowledge of assembly language concepts. There might be better introductions for a total newbie but if you already know another assembly language and other basic concepts of computer architecture they should serve you very well. -Andi - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
