Hi Sakshi,

Well this discussion may be going off the way of technical kernel discussion on this list, but its anyway the aim is to get you point you in a kernel development direction.

I think the situation with you is very common. What I can suggest is that you join a group where you know people are working on kernel development. You may not directly work on kernel components but user space utilities around that. You can always ask for small kernel assignments or bug fixes in kernel drivers from your manager and gradually prove yourself fit for kernel development.

Trust me, this works. At least it worked for me.

All the best!!

Hi,

Maybe I am not the first one to ask such a question...but couldnt stop myself either...

I have read all the relevant books on linux...such as LKD & LDD. I have tried getting some projects on soureforge.net as well ...however, i have not been lucky so far.

I want to land up with a job in Linux Kernel but everywhere I get rejected for lack of practical experience.


   Just curious. Sorry If I sound rude..Why do you want a job in Linux kernel development ? 

 
Dont know what to do to get relevant practical experince which gets counted and helps me land up with a job.
I am low on morale and confidence...pls suggest.


Regards,

Sakshi
