Technical Differences of *BSD and Linux
Dear Arief,
as you can see your questions are not very welcome on the mailinglists, therefore i advice you to have a look at this book if you are interested in BSD's technical background
Title: The Design and Implementation of the 4.4BSD Operating System
Authors: McKusick, Bostic, Karels and Quarterman
Publisher: Addison-Wesley
4.4BSD is what NetBSD, OpenBSD and FreeBSD are basing on.
For Linux i cant help you.
Take this approach to read about technicals issues yourself, by finding the differences yourself you learn much more than being told.

There is one mailing list where this kind of discussion probably would be welcome, the kernelnewbies mailing list. Personally I'd really like more things related to BSD, Hurd and other freely available systems on the kernelnewbies mailing list, irc channel, etc. I might have founded #kernelnewbies to help people with Linux questions, but it was never my intention to limit it to Linux kernel stuff only.

I can recommend Understanding the Linux Kernel, 2nd edition.
Other people have recommended various other kernel related books, you can find a small list on:
