Rebuild the Dev of a non UNIX kernel...
My name for this post may be a bit off but basically I would like to take go though the same proses that kernel developers went though to build other kernels that are based on UNIX such as Linux,
And do it from scratch IE. starting with the base UNIX and building on to it.
So I in theory could make a recipes of sorts to show the development proses in many kernels.
My question is if it would be possible to do this with individual files instead of adding script to the UNIX kernel,
Sort of like the L4Linux project having the kernel built with supplementary files?
Any theoretical thoughts,
Or ideas?

NAME
readahead-collector - collect list of files used during the boot process
SYNOPSIS
readahead-collector [options]
DESCRIPTION
readahead-collector is a files list generator for use in readahead(8) based on the files used during the boot process.
Note: readahead-collector uses the audit subsystem of the kernel
to gather the list of accessed files; for this reason, it is necessary that the kernel is built with the CONFIG_AUDIT and CON-
FIG_AUDITSYSCAL options enabled. Stock Debian kernels are built with these options.
OPTIONS
-d enable debug mode.
-f leave the daemon in the foreground for debugging, output goes to stdout.
-h print the usage information.
FILES
/etc/readahead.conf
