Well, before running make oldconfig, you should copy the .config file from the kernel you used just before this one (2.6.16-gentoo-r12 possibly?) to /usr/src/linux. make oldconfig will then create a new .config based on your previous settings for the new kernel. I don't know what make prepare does... someone else want to pick that one up? R -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
