Some part of any operating system is h/w specific and thus stick with one arch at this stage e.g. x86 or ARM.
Understanding Linux kernel talks about x86 arch. So some times you might wish to look into x86 manual in order to get a clear pic of arch and h/w specific part of Linux.
But I would suggest for first go, just skip the h/w specific functions, just know what they do and concentrate more on concepts and h/w independent part.
All the best

Hi,
I am reading books 'Understanding Linux Kernel', 'Linux Kernel In A Nutshell', 'Linux Device Drivers' and 'Linux Kernel Development'. Should I read other books? What would be a nice way to start working with Linux kernel development or maintenance?
