Using a fast PC for builds for slow PC
I have two PC, a PIII 700 and a P100 (with only 24meg RAM). I would like to use the faster PC for doing make buildworld and make buildkernel KERNCONF=XYZ. Then somehow do the install onto the slower PC. The slower PC is running as a router and httpd server. The faster PC is running very a different set-up however they are both running 5.1-RELEASE.
