Start by visiting http://www.kernelnewbies.org, and after reading
that stuff, check the http://janitor.kernelnewbies.org/ page to pick
a small starting point.
Make a patch, send it to the appropriate contact in the
"linux/MAINTAINERS" file and then duck! Kidding, I'm kidding ;-)
Cheers

3 books:
Understanding the Linux Kernel ISBN: 0596002130
Linux Kernel Development ISBN: 0672327201
Linux Device Drivers ISBN: 0596005903
Read them cover to cover if you can, then start to tinker with the code.

Just in case you don't know it from school, equally essential is UNIX
Internals, ISBN: 0131019082. It's OS agnostic (though the author likes
Mach a lot), and unlike the above books it covers many features Linux
does not yet have, like priority inheritance.
After all, if you only have a hammer, everything starts to look like a
nail...
