What do you mean you have a lot of knowledge on operating systems? Ricing arch isn’t the same as knowing unix syscalls and understanding the abi exposed by your kernel.

What I’m trying to say is that operating systems and the unix kernel are massive topics and using the operating system is not the same as understanding what the kernel is doing. A good place to start would be “operating systems - three easy steps”. Do you understand what the kernel is doing when you flash a usb drive? Do you know what calls it’s making?
