You can put several kernel names in the KERNCONF variable in make.conf: KERNCONF= SUZIE WEIRDOS HOBBES The only trick which I learned some days ago is you have to put the name of the local kernel first in the list (here SUZIE will be the kernel I install on the build machine with 'make installkernel'). On the other machines, you only need to put the machine's kernel name in the KERNCONF variable in make.conf. olive -- C makes it easy to shoot yourself in the foot.
