Yes, you should be able to compile kernels everywhere.

I compile PPC kernels on the ia32-notebook from work (fast) and on my CHRP
(slower).
I compile m68k kernels on the ia32-notebook from work (fast) and (very rare) on
my Amiga (very slow).

Ok, that's cross-compiling, but compiling for a different system with the same
arch should work, too.

Can you post the error message from make.

In personal conversations with technical people, I call myself a hacker. But
when I'm talking to journalists I just say "programmer" or something like that.
