Start with about $1000 to pay Microsoft for the IFS Kit. Buy two computers
with 1394 running Windows XP Pro. Connect the two computers and make sure
Windbg works properly. I would also add a MSDN Universal subscription for
about $3000.

Hi Bison,

  1. Rajeev Nagar’s “NT File System Internals” is a good
    place to start. It is for NT 4.0, but still is IMO,
    the best place to start.
    ISBN 1-56592-249-2
    It is out of print, but you might be able to get a
    used copy on Amazon.com

  2. Get Microsoft’s IFS kit ($1000) (if you can afford
    it :wink:
    If you can’t afford it, you could try Bo Brantén’s
    Ntifs.h http://www.acc.umu.se/~bosse/
    (I don’t know how upto date it is.)

  3. Get a MSDN Subscription (if you can afford it :wink:
    [or] just order your copy of the DDK and download
    WinDebug.

  4. Get a couple of computers, connect them using a
    null-modem cable.
    Install the checked version of Windows on one and
    the regular version on the other.
    (If you do not have the checked build, go with the
    regular build. :wink:
    If you do not have two computers, you could try
    SoftIce. :wink:

  5. The XP DDK comes with its own compiler and linker.
    If you are using another DDK, get a Windows C/C++
    compiler.
    I would suggest MS Visual Studio.

Hope that helps.

Regards,
Manoj
