I joined this mailing list to get a question regarding alsa answered, but I stayed on to absorb some of the discussion and hopefully learn some more about linux. I've seen many comments like the one below that refer to make, make config, loading modules, etc. and I have a vague idea what is being talked about. But, I'd like to learn more. Can anyone recommend books or web resources that gently and efficiently teach the ins and outs of compilation, shared libraries, linux internals, etc.?

thanks,

b

Georgi,

How do I make sure I don't change anything in the configuration? I found the
kernel-2.4.9-i386.config file, but it asks several hundred questions when I
run make config on it. How do I ensure I am not changing anything?

Either press enter to keep the current answer, or use make oldconfig, which
will only ask questions about unconfigured features, or use make menuconfig
(what I usually do) and then exit, save, or use make xconfig which is pretty
much the same as menuconfig.
