How to compile Android AOSP for x86

I've seen that there are emulator images available for Android which can run on x86 virtual machines. I'd like to build my own x86 Android image from source, but I can't seem to find instructions online. Is it currently possible to build a custom x86 "ROM"? (not sure "ROM" is appropriate term for x86 systems, whatever)

Yes it's possible, but you still need a Linux machine to compile it (without going into a lot of troubles).

There are a lot of information on porting android to X86 platform in the net. I suggest you to start with this one: Android-x86 - Porting Android to x86 .

You can also have look at XDA forun. They do a lot of work on porting ROM's.

Regards.
