 Here the basic instructions to compile uml stuff:
 
-Get kernel sources from www.kernel.org which preferably 
-match the kernel version used by gbootroot - this can be found in the Changes 
-file - and then a matching uml-patch from 
-http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=429.  Use config as 
-your .config at the base of the sources.  There are good instructions on how 
-to compile a uml kernel at

 Then put the uml kernel in the directory cited above and call it linux; you can
 put the modules in a Replacements directory later on (see FAQ).
