I am wondering whether there is some prior art that the Mirage OS 
(http://xenproject.org/developers/teams/mirage-os.html, 
https://github.com/mirage ) team has done, which you could build 
upon/re-use/look at. Obviously you wouldn't need any of the higher level 
OCaml language stuff. I will let Anil respond, whether there is anything 
that you could use.

Best Regards
Lars
