Moving a JVM into a kernal is a very dumb thing to do.  It brakes the
idea of a 'sandbox' ie secure workspace.

You wouldn't.  Kernels typically handle only basic process and
resource management (a gross simplification).  Java provides a
reasonably portable programming environment.  For an interesting
example of a purpose-built OS (written in C) with a tightly integrated
JVM implementation, for use on cell phones, see http://www.savaje.com

I have a feeling that you mean simply installing Java and "making it
work". Is that it?
