Good Book on Operating Systems?

[vrd]

can anyone suggest a good book on operating systems?

i have googled a few but i would like to know if anybody recommends a particular book which will help me gain a good understanding of the underlying concepts.

Operating System Concepts, Silberschartz, Galvin & gagne. The standard tome.

+1 ^^. Great book to understand the concepts.

If you want to dig into the internals, there are lots of books

1.>Linux Internals, 3rd Ed. I believe the 2nd Ed is available as a free to download PDF by the authors

2.>The Design of the Unix OS by Bach. I think this straddles between concepts and internals

3.>Operating Systems by Tanenbaum. Half of the book is the source code to Minix.
