Written by a leading developer and maintainer of the Linux kernel,
"Linux Kernel in a Nutshell" is a comprehensive overview of kernel
configuration and building, a critical task for Linux users and
administrators. No distribution can provide a Linux kernel that
meets all users' needs. Computers big and small have special
requirements that require reconfiguring and rebuilding the kernel.
Whether you are trying to get sound, wireless support, and power
management working on a laptop or incorporating enterprise features
such as logical volume management on a large server, you can
benefit from the insights in this book. "Linux Kernel in a
Nutshell" covers the entire range of kernel tasks, starting with
downloading the source and making sure that the kernel is in sync
with the versions of the tools you need. In addition to
configuration and installation steps, the book offers reference
material and discussions of related topics such as control of
kernel options at runtime. A key benefit of the book is a chapter
on determining exactly what drivers are needed for your hardware.
Also included are recipes that list what you need to do to
accomplish a wide range of popular tasks.
