A prerequisite of this course is the other course by Kirk or having read and understood his book, "The design and implementation of the 4.4BSD Operating System" As an anecdote, Kirk wears a different beastie T-shirt each class and explains the origin of it :-) Marco -- Marco Molteni "rough consensus and running code" SRI International, System Design Laboratory To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-chat" in the body of the message
