Sorry if I'm disturbing your newgroup with my newbie questions, i hope
you understand

Which books would you recommend for someone who is designing an entire
operating system from scratch, without a tutor. I already own Andy's
"design and implementation 2/e", "modern operating systems 1/e" and
milenkovic's "operating systems concepts and design 2/e". I've read
the OS theory and now i'm in the design and development stage of the
project, but i need further information in order to implement what i
know

I've been looking at amazon.com, and i found some interesting books
such as:

*-Operating systems concepts; John Wiley & Sons
*-Understanding linux kernel 2/e; o'reilly
*-Linux device drivers; o'reilly
*-Solaris Internals Core Kernel Architecture; prentice-hall
*-Linux kernel internals; addison-Wesley Pub Co
*-UNIX internals: the new frontiers; prentice-hall
*-Design of an UNIX operating system; prentice-hall
*-Design and implementation of the 4.4 bsd operating system;
addison-Wesley Pub Co

which books would you choose and why, considering my position.
thanks
