Here's a pointer to his last post. You can follow the thread from there. http://docs.FreeBSD.org/cgi/getmsg.cgi?fetch=478103+0+current/freebsd-stable Cliff Sarginson To: questions@freebsd.org Sent by: cc: owner-freebsd-questions@F Subject: BSD Design reeBSD.ORG 12/12/2000 08:04 AM hello, I have been reading some interesting things about the different philosophies of the BSD kernel to that of the Linux one, e.g. with regard to memory management. Can anyone point me at a source (apart from the source code itself) where this is explored a bit more. You can assume I am literate in OS terminology and concepts and so on.. This subject interests me greatly. Who knows, maybe I want to become a BSD kernel thingummy :) Thanks Cliff To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
