The Second Edition of Linux Device Drivers is about to drop out of the
O'Reilly catalog. When that happens, it is also possible that O'Reilly
will lose interest in hosting the free version of the book. To help
ensure that LDD2 remains available, I've put a copy onto the LWN server:
http://lwn.net/Kernel/LDD2/
I'll happily keep it there as long as it's useful.

P.S. LDD3? Februaryish.

Old as it is, LDD2 remains a good starting point. Thanks for
making sure it contines to be available.

Very much looking forward to get my hands on one of these.
Meanwhile, I was wondering whether it would have similar
licensing/availability as LDD2.

Perhaps the OSDL document archive would like to make a copy of it ?

I like that idea too.
