I don't know all of those things you reference, but I would put the more general computer science items before the C items, since those are much more specific and detailed, and probably assume some general knowledge already. Specific about (Net)BSD, there is the classic "The Design and Implementation of the 4.xBSD Operating System" by McKusick et al. It seems you can download the 4.4 version now from the FreeBSD website: https://download.freebsd.org/ftp/doc/en/books/design-44bsd/book.pdf It is dated in many respects (in the sense that lots of code has been added and rewritten in the mean time), but it covers pretty much all parts of the kernel. And it's about an ancestor of NetBSD. McKusic made an updated version about FreeBSD too. -Olaf. -- ___ "Buying carbon credits is a bit like a serial killer paying someone else to \X/ have kids to make his activity cost neutral." -The BOFH falu.nl@rhialto
