Possibly a much asked question, how far is mol usable/compilable on Mac OS X?

Can anyone please help me with the below question? How can I load the 
MOL kernel module manually? mol --loadonly still gives:
Mac-on-Linux 0.9.71-pre1 [Jul 16 2004 15:30]

Fatal error: opening /dev/mol0: No such file or directory

Thanks

I basically got past the compiling (there is one error during
compilation but nothing thats too serious, for some reason a file
called .verydummy.o is empty, it can't be linked).

Installation works fine too but I am running into the same error as
someone else:


<excerpt><excerpt> first got an error message saying that I needed to
run "mknod /dev/fb0 c 29 0", which I did. I tried it again and I now
get the following error message:

I have looked in that directory and can not find any makefile target
for this. I must be missing something, can any one please help?


Thanks

How far is mol compilable and running on Mac OS X itself?

I was able to compile it  for some part (had issues with some const
definitions for some reason) but I got hung on the end on the bit of
assembly.


Thanks
