I have both here, and find the XINU book covers most of the concepts needed to understand the UNIX kernel, and covers them much better than the Lyons document. Here's the Library of Congress Cataloging in Publication Data: Comer, Douglas Operating System Design, the Xinu approach. (Prentice-Hall software series) Bibliography: p. Includes index. 1.
