[TriLUG] Kernel processor family in VM

I am busy creating a Gentoo based virtual machine using VMware, on a
Pentium 4 based machine. Once I have it working as I want it to, I will
be transferring the VM to a machine with a Pentium III Coppermine CPU.
When compiling the Kernel, can I choose the CPU family to be Pentium III
and have it work on both machines?

TIA!

Owen
