If this is the case, then, yes. It's pretty easy. [1] place your custom configuration in /usr/src/sys/i386/conf (or link to it there) [2] read the top part of /usr/src/Makefile [3] you might want to create|configure /etc/make.conf by setting KERNCONF. For an additional 30M or so you can compile for both machines. [4] Assuming you have the two machines networking, setup nfs so that you can install from the PIII. This answer goes beyond what you asked with the nfs stuff. But there you have it anyway. No cross compiling. This is a basic overview. Questions?

I want the PIII to build a release for the AMD machine with optimizations. Is this possible with a simple make release, or do I have to do some sort of cross compiling?
