[Ask HN] How To Prepare For Google/Facebook System Interview?
I am talking about Linux/Unix based system internals interview. Currently, I am focusing on two parts.
1. Theoretical Questions - Like the process, mmu, CPU etc.
2. Troubleshooting Questions - how does ls work?, Unable to create new process etc.
Can someone recommend me any books or blogs to prepare for my interview? Currently, I am following Robert Love's Linux Kernel Development book.
