Not to be rude but if you understand the microkernel concept, you would grasp more of what is going on. And, also, if I showed you code from an L4 microkernel program would you understand it? The reason I asked the question in such a way is because the info that I'm looking for is mostly universal. And one more thing I'm not modifying the grub source I am booting using grub, you asked for boot environment, I assumed this is what you were talking about.
