Study UNIX Kernel

Hi all,
I hope you are fine,

I'd like study Os I tried a book like Silberschatz it's a good book but like
other books it talks about the concepts abstractly and that's due to it try
to encompass many concepts from many operating systems in GENERAL.

i am not too much comfortable from these method i'd like to go something
concrete... so I decided to read and study an actual implementation of an OS
(it's source code) . I decided to do that by studying :

C Programming language
A Machine Architecture corresponding to a selected operating system
A selected operating system

the Criteria am considering for selecting an OS is :

it runs on a machine that have books and documentation that describes it (preferably but not restricted to Intel )
the OS itself has plenty of books and documentation describing and explaining it's concepts and source code and of course open source the most important criteria is that it's old enough to be quite easy covering the fundamentals and then I could read more about subsequent versions for more complexity .
the OS is Unix or Unix-like or A modification or derived from Unix Kernel.

-----------------------------------

I tried searching for Xenix because it runs on 80386 which is an Intel well documented machine but I found that the OS itself is a closed source ..

my question now : I'd like you to help me please to choose the OS and the Corresponding Machine meeting the above criteria (even it's too old but it must have books and documentation still available till now) ... i have searched the internet too much but am still confused ...

and please tell me if am thinking correct to try learning this way ..

thanks too much for you all

glaurung

GLAURUNG(6)															       GLAURUNG(6)

NAME

       glaurung - free UCI chess engine, to calculate chess moves

SYNOPSIS

       glaurung

DESCRIPTION

       This manual page documents the glaurung command.

       glaurung is an UCI chess engine, to calculate chess moves

       Opening book

       This  version of Glaurung has experimental support for PolyGlot opening books.  For information about how to create such books, consult the
       PolyGlot documentation.	Currently, Glaurung requires that the book file is named book.bin and is placed in Glaurungs working directory.

       More than one CPU

       Beginning with version 2-epsilon/3, Glaurung has support for up to four CPUs.  Because the program currently  cannot  automatically  detect
       the  number of CPUs on your computer, it uses only a single search thread by default.  If your computer has two or more CPUs (this includes
       dual-core CPUs like the Intel Core Duo or the AMD Athlon 64 X2), you should set the "Threads" UCI parameter to the number of CPUs to obtain
       optimal performance.

OPTIONS

       This program does NOT follow the usual GNU command line syntax, with long options starting with two dashes.

SEE ALSO

       Communication with UCI commands is documented by "The UCI Communication Protocol" in /usr/share/doc/glaurung/engine-interface.txt.

AUTHOR

       glaurung was written by <Romstad Tord <tord@glaurungchess.com>>.

       This manual page was written by Oliver Korff <ok@xynyx.de>, for the Debian project (but may be used by others).
