I would assume it would be easiest if you had NetBSD, but cross-compiling on
FreeBSD has been done (see list archives).  I see no reason why you couldn't
do it on slackware (or cygwin, or any other OS, for that matter), but it
could be more of a pain than it's worth.  As long as you have all the source
that you need (SH-ported BSD libraries, etc.), and a SH3/4 C compiler, you
should be all set.

http://www.wrong.org/index.html is a step-by-step guide that may help.
http://www.roadsign.com/dc/ has some (burning software specific) CD images.

Marcus' site (http://mc.pp.se/dc/), if you haven't seen it yet, has a great
deal of DC resources (though I think it tends to be general purpose info,
not necessarily BSD-related).
