I have an odd thing happening. I have to Kernel config file that are the same except for two lines that are both remarked out.
When each is compiled (without debug) one is 2.2meg and the other is over 8 meg. I have included the to files below. I assume there is a hidden character in the file some where.
Could someone take a look and see if they can find the problem?
The first config is the 8 meg.
