I would like to request that all prebuilt 2.6 kernels include CONFIG_IKCONFIG=y (and preferably also CONFIG_IKCONFIG_PROC=y) as part of their config. The former enables me to get the .config file used to build the kernel, using a script in the kernel source tree, and the latter enables me to get it from 'zcat /proc/config.gz'.
I recently had to reinstall a system, and I would like to compile a custom kernel for this system. The prebuilt kernel works, except for one thing. So far I have been unable to get the correct configuration to get a new kernel to work. It would be great if I could start from a .config which already has most of the settings correct. As I see it, that's the whole point of the /proc/config.gz feature. This seems to me like it would be a common problem, therefore, I would like to request that all future prebuilt kernels include this setting. Thanks. --Andrew -- "The nice thing about standards is that there are so many to choose from." -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
