First, you should read the document at http://www.tux.org/lkml
It has lots of references (both pointers and books) which can
help you get started.

But the best way I suggest would be to get reading the sources
directly. Since your interest is in memory management, you'll
have to look through the arch/i386/kernel/* sources.

Hope this helps!
