As Seth just pointed out, however, this book is NOT for beginners. I would read an introductory OS book (Modern Operating Systems and/or The Design and Implementation of Operating Systems, both by A. Tannenbaum) and then an easier book on the Linux kernel, like Linux Device Drivers, before even thinking of reading Schimmel's. Good luck and happy hacking.
