[NCLUG] Build a Linux kernel for a 486 machine.

Hi all,

I want to set a 486 machine as a router/gateway machine. Is it possible?
What is the minimum requirement for this PC(Memory, Hard drive etc)? 

I guess I could build the kernel on a faster machine and transfer it to the
486 machine. Could anyone tell me how to build and transfer over if there is
no network before loading the kernel? Do I need build each components as
part of the kernel instead of a module loaded in when needed?

Thanks a lot!

Andrew
