I'm trying to learn more about the kernel, but when I'm reading articles it has terms that are unfamiliar by me. E.g: page tables physical pages of memory virtual pages pages etc.. These terms are hard to understand for a newbie like me, is there some page where I might get clear information about what they do? Could someone provide me explanation? Maybe it would be a good idea to do basic term explanations in wiki?
