Which of the Linux Distros should I take into consideration?Debian,Fedora,Gentoo,Slackware,openSUSE,etc.. there are so many, which distros should I take into consideration, consider the limitations and start working?Secondly, is the kernel (if the same version is considered) same on two different distros? That is , distributions differ at the Kernel level as well? On 2/24/14, priyaranjan <priyaranjan45678@gmail.com> wrote:

Hello, I am a newbie to kernel development. I would like to develop my own kernel from scratch. From where should I start from? I have a good experience of the commands in Linux (Ubuntu,Fedora,Debian,Slackware).
You can start with reading Linux kernel development by Robert Love. Also look at minix3 microkernel and its feature. You need to understand the various modules of OS before writing a one....
I googled out and I came to know that I should start from Device Drivers. Now which device driver should I code? Or should I master Shell Scripting? For developing a kernel (my aim here would be to increase the battery life, since most laptops have only 1.30 hrs or 2.00 hrs in Linux OS) and 3.00 hrs in Windows Environment. How should I start and from where?
I don't think drivers is the good place to start.
