Create prep docs for people to read as a replacement for the prep talk. The docs should include:
- outline: list of subjects and required knowledge
- relevant links
- "further reading" list
- intro doc for relevant subjects
topics that needs to be covered in intro docs:
- what is a "linux container" made of
- glibc, userspace, kernelspace
- processes from the kernel PoV
- cgroups
- namespaces
- CoW storage (high level)
- chroot/pivot_root
- mounts
- users
- basic memory management (rlimit, oom killer, memory cgroup)
i suggest putting the docs as markdown in a "prep-docs" directory so people can consume directly from the repo
