Hi I am Kaushal Shriyan, working as Tech Support Engineer for AOL in INDIA, having worked earlier for Red Hat Inc, I am an ardent fan of Linux and more than that I love Ubuntu Linux, Its simply great and awesome and also the logo means "Linux for Human Beings" is simply astounding. I am RHCE with 100% Marks. Just wanted to know which area on Linux OS is a good choice to grow in my profession. I mean is it Kernel Development (Device Driver Program or Linux sys admin or anything other field. Learning python in my free time is a hobby
First off, learn C really, really well. Get used to complex, multithreaded, locked, mutexed, semaphored programming with shared data, and IPC. Once you've done that, you'll understand a lot more about How It Works, and you can much more easily start playing with Kernel programming, if that's still what you want to do. The kernel is entirely C (well, plus arch-specific assembly), and the majority of things you use everyday on Linux are written in C, so C is a very good place to start. HTH- James
I know this is an Off Topic, sorry about that, But if you can point me to a correct resource, it would be great Thanks and Regards Kaushal Shriyan -- Kernelnewbies: Help each other learn about the Linux kernel. Archive: http://mail.nl.linux.org/kernelnewbies/ FAQ: http://kernelnewbies.org/faq/
