Textbooks Required Operating System Concepts (7th Edition), Silberschatz, Galvin and Gagne, ISBN 0-471-69466-5.

Required, read it online The Linux Kernel, David Rusling.
A locally stored copy is kept here.  No attempt will be made to keep the local copy synch'ed with the official copy.

Strongly encouraged Running Linux (4th Edition), Welsh et al., ISBN 0-596-00272-6.
Unless you are already running a Linux system on a personal machine (and maybe even then) I highly recommend you get this book. Available online through the UW Libraries here.
