CPU & Memory Compiling Mach 3.0 Kernel

Hi,

I am very new to this. I would like to compile the Mach 3.0 kernel. Can someone explain, step-by-step, how to turn all the Mach 3.0 kernel code into a single binary file that will run directly on an x86 computer?

Also, once (and if) I get it working, what software works on it? My goal is to write some simple software in C to run on it, so is there a C compiler for it, or should I cross-compile (I'm running Linux). And, if I do cross-compile, where do I get the correct libraries and so on for gcc?

If this seems like a stupid idea to you, please give me some suggestions. I'm even willing to use something other than Mach 3.0, even a non-unix kernel, if that's better. If you do think another kernel would be better, just know that I need it to be relatively small, and maybe ported to a few different architectures.

Thanks,
dublinus

ZPRINT(1)						      General Commands Manual							 ZPRINT(1)

NAME
zprint - show information about kernel zones SYNOPSIS
zprint [-w] [-s] [-c] [-h] [name] DESCRIPTION
zprint(1) displays data about Mach zones. By default, zprint will print out information about all Mach zones. If the optional name is specified, zprint will print information about each zone for which name is a substring of the zone's name. zprint interprets the following options: -w For each zone, zprint calculates how much space is allocated but not currently in use, the space wasted by the zone. -s zprint sorts the zones, showing the wasting the most memory first. -c (Default) zprint prints zone info in columns. Long zone names are truncated with '$', and spaces are replaced with '.', to allow for sorting by column. Pageable and collectible zones are shown with 'P' and 'C' on the far right. Zones with preposterously large maximum sizes are shown with '----' in the max size and max num elts fields. -h (Default) Shows headings for the columns printed with the -c option. It may be useful to override this option when sorting by col- umn. Any option (including default options) can be overridden by specifying the option in upper-case; for example, -C overrides the (default) option -c. SEE ALSO
