Cross-compiling is easy for kernels. I think I have pretty fast hardware (e.g. dual g5 18.GHZ and P4 4.2 GHz), and for me a kernel compile still takes far too long. But if you want to buy me a 512p Altix and the electricity bill so I can use gcc 3.3 all power to you! - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
