Subject: a question about building driver

Hi list,

I'm maintaining a little linux distribution. Sometimes users need to
build specific drivers for their machine. But they do not want the
whole linux kernel source which I used to make my linux distribution,
for they think it eats up too much disk and network bandwith. So, my
question is whether there's a way to give them partial kernel source
to build the needed driver module.

Thanks
Zhi
