This is neither a very practical project nor a good place for someone unfamiliar with both the linux kernel and android to start. You need to learn a lot more about working with the linux kernel in embedded systems and also about using android on a system it already runs on, such as its stock emulator, before you try a novel combination of the two.
Download the android sdk and spend a lot of time looking around at the (adb shell) linux command line.
