In paragraph 4.3 Other "make"ables in the Kernel-HOWTO:
"make oldconfig' will attempt to configure the kernel from an old
configuration file; it will run through the `make config' process for you. If
you haven't ever compiled a kernel before or don't have an old config file,
then you probably shouldn't do this, as you will most likely want to change
the default configuration. "
What's not mentioned is that if you don't have a .config file in the
/usr/src/linux directory, make oldconfig will create it for you, using the
current kernel options.
So, if you've never built a kernel before, you can get the default kernel
options by doing:
� �cd /usr/src/linux
� �make oldconfig
� �less .config
