Useless use of zcat :-)
$> zgrep AMIGA /proc/config.gz

If you need only an additional driver for AMIGA file system support
and this driver can be implemented as a module, then there is no need
to build an entire new kernel! Just use
$> make modules SUBDIRS=fs/affs
in the directory with the kernel source to build the affs.ko kernel
module which can then be installed with the following command:
$>  make modules_install SUBDIRS=fs/affs
If you need to compile the module not for the currently running kernel
but for another one or if you use a build directory or <...>, you need
to be a bit careful. Nevertheless, the principle should be the same.
If an additional feature cannot be implemented as a module, then of
course you can't use the approach described here.

YaST online update might not like something like that...

And, by the way, I think one does not really need something like an
ACPI fan driver (fan) etc. etc. in an initial ramdisk :-)
