I can setup QEMU. But, I will be needing a filesystem with my desired kernel and neccessary utils. How create such simple filesystem? and boot it from QEMU?
Thanks all for your helpful responses. :)

Hi List,
I want to practice and write kernel modules. But, I cant do that in my host
system as it may crash. I need to create a simulation environment where only
kernel, bash and utils (coreutils, modutils, etc) are available. I dont want
to install a complete distro in VmWare or Virtualbox or whatever. I want to
make it simple for the purpose.
Have you considered using User Mode Linux or Qemu as the
emulator/virtualization tool? And as the root filesystem, try creating
one using Linux From Scratch or Gentoo stage 3. Or maybe slim distro
like puppy linux...
