Book Review: Linux Kernel In A Nutshell
If you’ve reached the point in your Linux career where you need to build a kernel or tweak the parameters of one you’re already running, Linux Kernel in a Nutshell, written by Greg Kroah-Hartman, a leading developer and maintainer of the Linux kernel, will show you the way. The book provides complete guidance on how to build and install a custom kernel in order to get the performance and behavior you need from Linux.
Kroah-Hartman recalls that when the topic of the book was first presented to him, he dismissed it as something that was already covered by the plentiful documentation available on the kernel. “Surely someone had already written down all of the basics needed in order to build, install, and customize the Linux kernel, as it seemed to be a very simple task to me.” But, a Linux kernel developer by trade, Kroah-Hartman admits that things that seem basic and simple to him are often completely incomprehensible to others.
