That part in the handbook only works when both the build machine and
the target machines are running the same O/S arch (i.e. i386).

You can run mergemaster from either the build machine or the target
machine.  The target machine would need to have the /usr/src NFS
mounted.

To use mergemaster on the build machine use:

mergemaster -A i386 -D /path/to/nfs/mnt/
