UNIX Power Tools, 3rd third 4th Edition O'Reilly CHM Book

EBook Description: If we were writing about any other operating system, "power tools" might mean "nifty add-on utilities to extend the power of your operating system." That sounds suspiciously like a definition of Unix: an operating system loaded with decades' worth of nifty add-on utilities. Unix is unique in that it wasn't designed as a commercial operating system meant to run application programs, but as a hacker's toolset, by and for programmers. In fact, an early release of the operating system went by the name PWB (Programmer's Work Bench). When Ken Thompson and Dennis Ritchie first wrote Unix at AT&T Bell Labs, it was for their own use and for their friends and coworkers.

Provides a clear and detailed description of the internals of the UNIX kernel, the interface between the user and the kernel, and how the kernel interacts with the Intel X86 family of CPUs. Based on the SCO versions of the UNIX and SCO OpenServer Release 5, the text contains many practical examples.

GNU Linux Application Programming CHM Book

The history of GNU/Linux is actually two separate stories that came together to produce a world-class operating system. Richard Stallman created an organization to build a UNIX-like operating system. He had tools, a compiler, and a variety of applications, but he lacked a kernel. Linus Torvalds had a kernel, but no tools or applications for which to make it useful. Richard Stallman, the father of open source, began the movement in 1983 with a post to the net.unix-wizards Usenet group soliciting help in the development of a free UNIX-compatible operating system [Stallman83]. Stallman�s vision was the development of a free (as in freedom) UNIX-like operating system whose source was open and available to anyone.

Linux on HP Integrity Servers: A System Administrator's Guide Book

This is the only book on the market that covers Linux on HP Itanium systems.HP plans to replace all of their high end, precision architecture systems withItanium systems within the next two years. According to IDC, HP continues tomaintain its long-standing No. 1 position in the rapidly growing Linux servermarket across all server platforms with 31.7 percent customer revenue shareworldwide.This book is divided into two parts. Part 1, Linux System Administration,begins with extensive coverage of booting HP Itanium-based systems. This iscrucial as these systems can run Linux, HP-UX, and Windows Server 2003simultaneously, and because the boot process is substantially different than onprevious systems. Poniatowski also covers the HP Enablement Kit for Linux, aset of tools that provides a framework for installing, configuring, andrecovering a Linux distribution on HP Itanium 2 systems. Finally, Part 1 coversmany additional system administration topics such as startup,
