When compiling the Kernel, can I choose the CPU family to be Pentium III and have it work on both machines?
I believe so, your applications will be compiled based on your CFLAGS, not what hardware you actually have, so any problems you encounter would be on your VM machine (I don't think you'll see any, the P4 has more functionallity than the PIII) - but if you want to be safe just set 'mcpu' rather than 'march' for the CFLAGS in /etc/make.conf, that way you will retain compatibility between CPUs. You'll also need to build a kernel with your target architecture/hardware in mind.
