Hi I run -2.2.6/stable on my fastish box at home. I would like to build a current box for my old motherboard. I want to do the compiling on my -2.2.6 box without clobbering it. make release seems ideal, but for the fact it checks out a tree from CVS, I haven't got the disk space to have an upto date CVS tree and make a release, nor the bandwidth to download a tree. I started looking at a make buildworld but I think I would need to re-implement most of make release. Is this correct? Or, is there another way? If it's the make release way I guess that the cvs co could be replaced with a pax of my local copy of the current source (CVSup'd last night). Thanks Duncan PS. Had a good look throught the FAQ/handbook and archives, but nothing exactly addressed what I want or it was too old (before buildworld).
