Hi,

Although this does not relate to kernel, you can still view the codes of
common linux/unix commands. ftp.gnu.org hosts most of commands in
different packaging. Like "coreutils", "findutils", "netutils" etc. And
standalone codes are there for "grep", "ed" etc. 

You can also get a copy of freebsd dvd. Freebsd dvd's comes with full
source code of the core system.

cheers.
