Vorwort von Linus Torvalds zur 1. Auflage

Creating an operating system has been (and still is) an exciting project, and has been made even more rewarding through the extensive (and almost uniformly positive) feedback from users and developers alike.

One of the problems for people wanting to get to know the kernel internals better has been the lack of documentation, and fledgling kernel hackers have had to resort to reading the actual source code of the system for most of the details. While I think that is still a good idea, I'm happy that there now exists more documentation like this explaining about Linux use and internals.

Hope you have a good time with Linux and this book,
