Compiling only the base system?

[Cordula's Web]

Hi,

how can I compile just the base system (sysinstall's minimal install)
from CURRENT sources in /usr/src into DESTDIR=/some/nonstandard/path?

I don't need the complete system, just the stuff that is normally
available under /cdrom/base on a RELEASE CD (packed) or, if that is
too hard, the unpacked files.

Same for /cdrom/crypto.

Is that possible without having to download the complete CVS repo and
making a custom (snapshot) release?

Thanks,
-cpghost.
