I'm in a similar situation, I started kernel hacking a couple of weeks
ago.  I'm not much of a C programmer, and I've found the
kernelnewbies.org/FAQ section useful, particularly
kernelnewbies.org/FAQ/WhereDoIBegin That page describes lots of useful
things you can do just by compiling and running the kernel. I've
already submitted my first bug, a small thing in a makefile that kept
the -mm branch from compiling!
