Several example kernels are built in the oskit build's examples/x86
directory.  There are several ways to boot oskit (multiboot) kernels.  You
can use the GRUB bootloader (not from Utah, but free; see
http://www.uruk.org/grub/) to boot them directly, or you can use
mklinuximage to produce LILO-bootable images, or mkbsdimage to produce
images bootable by BSD bootloaders.
