Does anyone have any suggestions on how to understand the linux kernel as a whole first, and then on digging deeper into the details? As of now I'm learning details first(ex: load re-balancer, task_struct, etc...), and it seems rather slow going, and a tad overwhelming to memorize without understanding were the details are going.

Thanks for any help,
Lazlo
