Is it possible to install to a new computer via the sources somehow?

I have one machine that has the latest 2.2.8 sources and another machine
with nothing currently on it.  Is there a way I can install via ifs using
the sources on the existing machine?  Is there maybe something I can do with
'make' to make a distribution?

I realize I could run a minimal installation and then do a 'make world' once
I'm up and running, but I'd prefer not to have to re-download that if at all
possible as it is via a shared modem and would take some time.

Thanks,
Chris
