Or something else? I am quite a newbie when it comes to kernel development, so please bear with me on my naive questions :-)

Bob, please let me summarize: bootloader, kernel (+device tree) and a file system for the user space are needed to port Tizen or any other GNU/Linux distribution to a new hardware device. All these component have to be (cross) compiled for the targeted device and its exact hardware architecture. Sometimes depending on the requirements of the distribution certain additional options have to be enabled in the kernel defconfig, for example Tizen requires SMACK.

Best regards,
Leon
