HM -- I like that idea.
What I been doing is I take ./conf/GENERIC, copy to a new file, then
edit the new file by
commenting out all the devices not on my system (thats alot!). I save
this conf in CVS.
How well can I get this idea to work with NetBSD-HEAD?

Even easier: the stock GENERIC config contains the

That's how everyone does it ;p
What you were being suggested is keep track of those lines you remove
(or add if any) and apply to the up-to-date GENERIC.
I, too, have started w/GENERIC and commented out h/w I don't have; these
days, I don't bother, because we have plenty of memory & disk (relatively
on modern machines). AND, if you (can) stick w/GENERIC -- then you can
compare against the Official Release if there are problems.
Another reason I
I have never tried writing my own NetBSD config. I always
started with GENERIC, then commented out any hardware
that is not on my system.

Most likely not. If I were you, I would diff -u the early GENERIC and
your own configuration and try to apply the
When I configure, and compile a kernel from HEAD-sources, can I use a kernel
config-file from previous NetBSD versions?
