Hey Guys, I'm just another hacking hoping to hack on the kernel. I've played just a wee bit with toy OS's (from osdev.org), stuff like MikeOS etc. I've just begun reading Robert Love's - Linux Kernel Development. I have two questions: 1> I've got myself setup with Fedora 20 and I'm good to go, however Im somewhat scared by how contrived the kernel bugs are, and I'm wondering what kind of work can I do? Or any suggestions as to what I can code or write to learn something, maybe write to a log file everytime a process is created to understand that bit better? IOW, what toy projects can I do to explore various aspects of the kernel. 2> I started reading a linux device driver series, but how is a real driver written, can a random person get a technical hardware doc and go write a driver or is this something done only by a companies that manufactures hardware?
