I need to build a small os kernal which can run only one application. Say
for example eclipse.
Eclipse is not just one application , its a combination of many
dependent applications .
http://packages.debian.org/wheezy/eclipse
^^ Keep digging the dependenices and it will result in a huge list .
Especially if you want a graphical application to run you would need a
hell lot of applications to run on the main kernel but you can
definitely build one for your own purpose .
If you are building for a specific hardware you can also reduce the
size of the final distribution . Maybe you want to build something
like a router software (

does very simple tasks and is based on linux kernel ?
