Re: [kbuild-devel] Converter cml1-kconfig?
Thank you, I just liked the sound of the name -- now I actually have a clue. Frankly I think the text version is most appropriate -- to make the config files portable between users.

[kbuild-devel] Converter cml1-kconfig?
Hi, is a standalone converter script from cml1 to kconfig still available somewhere? I remember having read that there was one during the 2.5 inclusion. I'm currently writing a kconfig based distro build tool (you can use it to configure your user space for embedded devices) and I'm including the configuration of busybox (works just fine) and the kernel (here's the problem). So I'll have to convert the 2.4 kernel configuration to kconfig if possible, and using the script would be really helpful. Robert -- Dipl.-Ing.
