	I'm looking for a book that will go into extreme depth on Unix
filesystems and internals.  I have three books now, two give excellent
overviews on the general system, the third provides a lot of valuable 
information on minor internals and system security.  What I need is some-
thing that will provide information about:

	a)  directory and inode particulars.

	b)  outline memory maps of system use, i.e, how unix allocates
	    memory space, how it decides where to put programs that are
	    to be executed.

	c)  specifics on how adb can be used for high level debugging,
	    possible file recovery by direct manipulation of directories.

I don't know if this information is collected into one volume or not, or 
even if it is published.  Do you have any suggestions?

[Darian/Andre doesn't give the titles of the three books.  I'd suggest
"The Design of the UNIX Operating System" by Maurice J. Back, ISBN
0-13-201799-7 as comming closest.  For the real details, though, I'm
afraid that the source code will be the only recourse, especially on
how memory is used, as that varies from system to system, even (sometimes)
within a single vendor's offerings.  Any other ideas?  Good book on
debugging techniques?  -mod]
