Hehe I'd have to agree.

When I installed gentoo on a similar box, I found it was much better
to put the hard drive in a faster computer and do the install there.
As long as the make.conf and flags and stuff are set correctly for the
box it's going to end up in it should work fine.

Would this be an option for you?  Or are you compiling on the 486 just
for the sheer unadultarated hell of it :-)

Gentoo...the distro for masochists!
