Thanks Nick. I thought to write a characther driver or a block driver first, then i can move to another level. how about Linux device drivers , understanding the linux kernel book (Orielly), and wrox professional Linux kernel architecture ? iam looking for a book which suits for learner..(step by step guide kind of a document, which explains from the beginning). i wanna right it my own..iam doing this as a pet project.
