Thank you for the link :).

 Hasn't vanished at all.

 Sorry, maybe I was mistaken. I seemed to recall that some really cool
 Fravia content got pulled from everywhere. Either the entire site got
 restored everywhere, or that particular content is still offline but
 apart from that the entire Fravia/Searchlores stuff remains available.
 It doesn't help that I don't remember anymore what that content was...

 Sorry for the noise.

 As it turns out, I was not entirely mistaken after all, and Wikipedia
 has some info of what I was referring to:
 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fravia

 Fravia is a pseudonym/handle for a European cracker (his real name, 
 according to his autobiography, is Fjalar Ravia) who is probably best known 
 for his web archive of reverse engineering techniques and papers. Mirrors of 
 the old web site (fravia.org) still exist (see, e.g., Internet Archive), 
 though Fravia has publicly requested their removal in favor of his new 
 web-searching-centric sites.

 However, I was not entirely right either, as it appears as if the
 Fravia mirror at phiral.net doesn't have the old reverse engineering
 goodies either. It goes without saying that if someone knows where
 this info can still be found, I would be more than grateful for any
 pointers.


Answering to myself here, for the benefit of the archives:
I was overeager with the Send button before; it turns out that
Wikipedia still had a link to a mirror of the reverse engineering
stuff: http://woodmann.com/fravia/

 Thank You!

Google for 386INTEL.TXT and 387INTEL.TXT. These files are official
documentation from Intel and the best on x86 assembly I've seen so
far. Get some basic understanding about how a processor works and how
you use a processor from the assembly level, then you are just fine
with 386INTEL.TXT (if you are a good C programmer, you already should
know enough to read 386INTEL.TXT).

Hello,

Are you talking about
http://www.ragestorm.net/downloads/386intel.txt
and
http://www.ragestorm.net/downloads/387intel.txt ?

I mean, are these the good ones ?


Oh and, thanks everyone for the good doc that has been linked in this thread. I 
was looking for the way to get this Intel documentation at home, thank you very 
much :).

i'm a beginner, but i picked up The Art of Assembly Language, a No Starch
Press book by Randall Hyde. ISBN 1886411972.

i'm sure there's a much longer list of book an assembly programmer
should have at arm's reach, but this is the only one i'm using so far.

You can ask or try to search on comp.lang.asm.x86, I think its a
better place for
your question.

You can also read the comp.lang.asm faq :
