When you build the kernel (or any of ON for that matter) you always only 
build x86 or sparc since there is no cross compilation support.  The 
makefiles are setup to only build the binaries relevant for each 
architecture.

If you really only want to build and install the kernel then run "make 
install" in $SRC/uts and if you really know what you are doing you can 
use Install(1) (from SUNWonbld) to install just a kernel - but note this 
is very fragile and may cause panic's depending on what you change.  It 
is recommended to build the whole ON tree and use bfu unless you are 
100% certain your changes are kernel only.
