I think the subject is clear enough, but I'll explain it a bit more:
I've got Slackware 8.0 up and running on my desktopcomputer.
But I have another spare 486 which I'd like to use as a router. But it only has 100 MB HDD, so I only kan install the A (base) and N (nterwork) series. There was not enough space to install the K (source) series. So I can;t build any kernels on that 486, but I do need one to get the NIC working.
So I was wondering whether it would be possible to build a kernel on my desktop PC:
make config
make zImage
And copy the zImage to the 486?
Thus far I see only one possible problem: the command make dep/clean.
Any suggestion to solve this problem?
