Thanks for the suggestion. I actually planned on doing this already though, as this is the only choice at this point. Next time I upgrade the Kernel, is there a way to have it use the settings used in the previous kernel setup? Or do we actually have to go into the kernel menu and reconfigure all the kernel settings manually each time? I'm seriously doing as much reading as possible on this subject but I find myself getting lost in the vast amount of info on this subject. Not trying to make excuses but its hard to stay goal centric trying to sift through mounds of info trying to find what fits and what doesn't for what I'm actually trying to accomplish. I realize I'm not going to understand this over night. This is all I really want. My goal is to understand to a degree what can be added and removed safely (in regards to the hardware that I have on this pc) from the kernel setup-menuconfig, starting from the top of the kernel menu and working all the way down to the bottom. I understand that most Kernel menuconfig-setup options/selections will differ from one user to the next, but any general examples would be nice. Is there any info out on the web that <Specifically> walks beginners or even non-beginners through the Kernel-menu-config from top to bottom? Possibly explaining each menu option along the way.. :) This would be ideal. Even more ideal would be examples for the PIII architecture if possible.
