From 3.5 billion Reddit comments

Operating System Internals for me. here is the Book http://www.amazon.com/Design-Implementation-FreeBSD-Operating-System/dp/0201702452/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1289469941&sr=8-2

While being a self taught sys admin is great, learning the internals of how things work can really extend your knowledge beyond what you may have considered possible. This starts to get more into the CS portion of things, but who cares. It's still great stuff to know, and if you know this you will really be set apart. Im not sure if it will help you directly as a sys admin, but may quench your thirst. Im both a programmer and unix admin, so I tend to like both. I own or have owned most of these and enjoy them greatly. You may also consider renting them or just downloading them. I can say that knowing how thing operate internally is great, it fills in a lot of holes.

OS Internals

While you obviously are successful at the running and maintaining of unix like systems. How much do you know about their internal functions?
