You probably don't need to worry about the kernel, but, tomsrtbt is based
on libc5, RH62 is libc6, so,

You will certainly have to either:

1) Compile stuff with libc5
or
2) Link stuff with -static

since the "RH" binaries will be based on libc6.

Option (1) makes small executables but requires you get a libc5
compilation process going on your machine.

Option (2) makes larger executables but is easier

You will probably also need rpc.portmap.

There is some kind of in-kernel nfs server in newer kernels, you might
want to try that.  It is not hard to put a 2.2.x kernel on tomsrtbt, just
make sure it supports the minix filesystem and ramdisks.

For the normal nfs server, I don't think you need anything special in the
kernel.  This is definitely _not_ something that falls into the supported
stuff that is congruent with the design goals of tomsrtbt, but it also
shouldn't be too hard to get going.
