[Devil-linux-develop] crosscompiling

[]Aphex[ <ap...@ap...>]

When building on a i686 for another computer (an i586 or even i486), is =
the only setting I need to set for this in the make menuconfig? I saw 2 =
places in the menuconfig right next to each other, one for the kernel, =
one for gcc, are those the only ones I need to set?

Yes correct, but you have to be carefull.
You can not compile for an 686 on a 486, but you can compile for 486 on 
a 686.

You cannot compile for a 486 on a 486, unless you have a couple years to
wait for it to complete!  ;-)
