Put aside the nice Tanenbaum's book, is there any other documents
describing how to write code for Minix3?

Any tutorial? Any PDF? Any PPT? Anything?

I'm interested mainly in device drivers. It would be fantastic to find
a tutorial describing how to implement a R2232 or a mouse (PS/2) driver,
for example.

Is there anything describing how to work vith ACK (compared with GCC)?

Is there any document comparing the tasks of implementing a device
driver for Linux (monolithic kernel + loadable modules) and for Minix3
(microkernel)? How is the driver loaded? How is modeled the interface
between the kernel and the driver?

Is there any document telling the develeoper where to find the docs
related to UARTs and other common HW components?

Thanks

Hi Allessandro

For sure there are books or tutorials how to program R2232 and PS/2
for Linux. Probably they are also helpful for minix. Check out the
large Linux HOWTO collection on the web.
