Go to the Cygwin website and download and follow the instructions provided install it. Make sure you install Make and GCC, if not most of the development tools. Then, build a cross-compiler. There are already instructions for doing all that, next time search the wiki. Also, if you can't follow these instructions, then I'm sorry to say you aren't ready for OS development.
