when i emerge a new kernel to compile, does the /etc/kernel/default-config get replaced?

when i genkernel --config does the /etc/kernel/default-config get overwritten?

does genkernel make use of make.conf when compiling kernels?

when does the /usr/src/linux/.config get written to?

i'm currently using the gentoo gaming-source, because my nforce2 board was having problems with gentoo-source. i just found out that the kernel did not have usb printing enabled, so i'm interested in compiling a different kernel possibly 2.4.22 (any thoughts on this and nforce2 mboard?) i want to preserve my config files for each of the kernels that i compile, just in case i have to go back and recompile it... any suggestions...
