Chapter 18 (specifically, sections 18.1-18.3 and 18.8,10,11) 
of the DJGPP  FAQ has an _excellent_ discussion on interrupts.
It is better than any tutorial/book that I have seen.

Yes, the FAQ sections that I mentioned above deal specifically
with these questions. If there is anything there that you that
you need explained further or clarified, do ask here. You will
recieve very articulate and useful explanations.
