Kernel compile trivia...

[Chris Hellyar]

Hi-ho,

A question for those on the list more famliar with compiling their own kernels with odd options..

This question comes about because I normally just play with 'make xconfig' and remove stuff that I don't need, and optimise for the architecture, to make get better performance (lots better in the case of RH as it happens...)

Anyway, I want to add some options that I can't find in menuconfig or xconfig..

I'm building some floppy boot disk images to use the LAN at work as a cluster for some experiments with the linpack cluster benchmarking tools, and I need to add in CONFIG_IP_PNP_DHCP=y and CONFIG_ROOT_NFS=y.

My problem is I can't find the config file to manually edit it.. I've either gone blind or missed something in the doc's somewhere :-).

Anyone got a torch that works on the kernel Makefile maze? :-).

Cheers, Me...
