I have 4 FreeBSD 2.2 boxes connected to Internet.
They are very different each other, starting from a Pro 200 with 64mb ram
arriving to a laptop texas Travelmate 4000 (486 sx25) with 8mb ram and
120mb HD :-)

Now I usually apply the ctms to /usr/src on the faster , the ppro 200 and
then I do a :

make world.

After this , if everything is ok I mount on each other box the /usr/src and
/usr/obj of the Ppro and then issue a :

make install

But a lot of times I get an error about wrong path or missing files or
directory (i.e. in /usr/share). So I have to copy the missing
files/directories/tree on the other boxes. 
Now I am thinking is there a best solution to do this ... 
Think that i.e. the laptop is very short of space on HD and couldn't have a
src and an obj on it :-)
