At my previous $JOB we configured an amd64 system to load i386 diskless
stations.

"Not work" is not a diagnostic message. Please, be more specific here.

I'm not sure if those varialbes are needed.

Well, does this really work? Is it the same as KERNCONF=GENERIC?
Not sure.

I'm not sure about TOOLS_PREFIX (do not recall we used it).

I'd say this is not needed.

And that should be "make distribution DESTDIR=$DESTDIR".
