configuring is easy.
enable the hardware you have.
disable the hardware you don't have.
read the help to all options that are default on - do you really need it?
Really?

Better performance lies that way. Also, you don't have to wonder

I personally don't spend time sitting there watching the progress of
first kernel I configured and 'maked' myself was 2.2.14 and I was scared. When
it finaly booted and everything worked I was overjoyed.
I wad even more overjoyed when it performed a lot better than Suse's 2.2.10...
which was a bit swap-happy.
