Yep, both gokrazy and u-root serve as inspirations/references (there's a lot of tricky stuff like configuring the network or the framebuffer). Using a kernel from Debian while figuring out my options - glad there seem to be so many.

The ultimate goal is to make it very straightforward to change any part of the system source and try it out in action, so the only things you need installed to get started are Go and Qemu. Further down the road I'd love to extend these principles to hacking the kernel - I'd probably like a simpler kernel, maybe OpenBSD or NetBSD, but I'm less familiar with those.
