You will most probably need a different kernel, because as hard as MS 
tried, the kernel is still a bit architectural dependent.
We might be able to make a single kernel handle both the xbox and a 
normal pc, but IMO that would require special flags and complex code 
that is if..then instead of a compile-time ifdef, and it would make our 
code more bloated. I think having a separate kernel  binary is fine.
