User Mode Linux by Jeff Dike

Ebook Free Download |User Mode Linux by Jeff Dike| The book does a good job of describing UML configuration options and facilities. But where it really shines is in the ancillary material, covering the whys and hows of other subsystems that work in conjunction with UML.

For example, I found the treatment of network trouble-shooting that is interspersed with the UML networking section to be very well-done and useful beyond UML alone. Another high point is the information about kernel memory management (in conjunction with the discussion of tt, skas0 and skas3). But by far, the most enjoyable and impressive section of the book is the last two chapters in which the author challenges the reader to think about the wider implications of OS virtualization – for example why you might want to embed an instance of Linux inside another application that is in turn running on Linux (or even inside another UML)

Unix for Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger: Visual QuickPro Guide (2nd Edition) by Matisse Enzer

Ebook Free Download |Unix for Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger: Visual QuickPro Guide (2nd Edition)| I have a working understanding of UNIX and am a Mac user. In my experience, this book is ideally targeted for someone like me that wants to improve UNIX skills and prefers to do so on a Mac. Other texts I’ve consulted seem to jump too fast between really elementary subjects to needs of a system admin. The depth here is still rich, but the reader has time to digest the information before getting to more complex constructs.
