Which host distribution?

Hello,
I'm getting problems more and more, so now I'm going to ask here.
What linux distribution uses a 2.4 kernel and XFree86 3.3.6 and is able to
compile BusyBox?
Background:
I want to compile some kind of minimalistic linux for my notebook
(i486SL/33) using Kernel 2.4, BusyBox 1.3 and XFree86 3.3.6. (Later versions
don't support the graphics chipset and binaries are too large/slow because
of the many drivers included.)
It works, but I am not able to compile the XF86_SVGA server for this system.
My compiling distribution is Debian Woody (and RedHat 6.2). The latter uses
XFree86 3.3.6, but BusyBox doesn't compile on this distribution (it uses gcc
2.92). I compiled gcc 3.3.6 and tried to compile BusyBox using this, but I
failed also.
As I have not gained much experience (apart from that I got when I put
things together - this is the state I am now) I don't know how to handle the
libraries. Right now I simply copy over the needed libs to /lib/ on the
notebook. Do you know some howto which simply describes the steps needed to
be able to build a glibc/uClibc on a host to run on a guest?
Please help me...
Regards,
Sebastian
