Step 2: Find out what distro your office is using. Step 3: Ask on a normal linux users group mailing where to get a copy of that or a free equivalent. Step 4: Gain an understanding of linux user space tools, including how to compile them, modify them, etc. (Could take years if you're not a programmer.) Step 5: Come back to this mailing list and start your adventure into kernel hacking.
