The "base setup" submenu allows to specify these settings:
First option is named "64 bit kernel". Today's compilers are dual-arch -
they can compile for S390/ESA 31bit as well as for zSeries/ESAME 64bit. If
you enable this option, you'll get a zSeries/ESAME compiled kernel, 31bit
otherwise.
In "Processor type" you can specify, which processor you have:
When compiling a 31bit kernel, you have three options:
- G5 and G6 [runs on G5, G6, and all zSeries]
- z800/z900 [runs on zSeries only and is slightly faster than
running with above option]
- z890/z990 [only runs on z890/z990 only and is slightly faster
than running with above option]
When compiling a 64bit kernel, you only have the last 2 options.
with kind regards

Subject: how to recompiling linux kernel
hi all,
I have downloaded kernel 2.6.5 and applied in sequence all the patch to
create
a complete linux kernel source for s390.
Well, I run menuconfig but I don't understand where I must specify my
subarchitecture... (under "Subarchitecture Type" menu where is no s390 or
similar...)
Where can I find one manual/paper/howto can me explain what to do?
thanks,
