Can't you just "make oldconfig" then "make menuconfig" over top of it? You'd have the old stuff, and could then toggle in new stuff (not to mention, resurrect stuff that changed or moved). > hear what's available for this, andwhat could be learned from tools to > discover hardware details :-) You know all that stuff that scrolls up off the screen at boot time? I suppose you could try to clip that out of the kernel and wrap it somehow, but it's probably simpler to just build a kernel and try to boot it. -- Any technology distinguishable from magic is insufficiently advanced.
