Hi ,

http://www.chromium.org/chromium-os/how-tos-and-troubleshooting/building-chromium-browser is a place to get started from scratch.

From having built both, the actual story is told in the chromium ebuild file, so depending on how you built each you can pass flags along to get the chromium-os to include the same source code as you built and (mostly) tested on the host built into the device image.

Hope that helps,

Peter.

I think you'll need to wait until Bug http://crbug.com/236500 is fixed. I am working on it now and once it's done you should be able to build with --board=x86-generic
