Subject:   Building Kernel on Minimal Install

I've got a 486 acting as a NATD machine for my network.  It's got a
tiny hard drive which can only hold a minimal install, and there isn't
enough HDD to install /usr/src/sys.  I've tried extracting
/usr/src/sys onto another machine (in a different directory,
temporarily symlinked as /usr/src/sys), and attempted to build a
kernel.  However, this other machine isn't running the same version
and config complains of version errors.

What is the easiest way to get a custom kernel for my machine without
upgrading any of my others??
