In rebuilding a kernel, how do you know exactly what modules you need?
The Handbook is a good start, and a lot of them are obvious (i.e. if
I have no SCSI disks, disable all SCSI modules). Others aren't so
easy, particularly serial devices, and the pseudo devices. How can I
find out exactly

Thanks for the info. My terminology is off...apparently what I really
meant is I'm wondering what drivers I need to compile into the kernel.
I've done what you've suggested - removed SCSI support, all of the
NIC drivers besides the one I need, etc. I'm just wondering how I can
find out EXACTLY
