As has been mentioned, the preferred (and most fail proof way) is to build
sets on the build machine.

You can get away most of the time with something like

  make installworld USETOOLS=never INSTALLWORLDDIR=/ DESTDIR=/mnt 

on the target machine, but again, most of the time "build.sh sets" is the
best thing to do.
