I need to recompile my kernel and I want to start with the existing options.
Before starting to compile you own kernel i would try 1 read the complete documentation 2 try to find out if your actual kernel won't suffer your claims
Where can I find the current kernel config (SuSE 8.0 Personal BTW)?
The current config/actual kernel configuration file can be found in the /boot-directory with 'vmlinuz-config' ... after you choosed to install the kernel packages (be sure to choose the right kernel-type for your maschine) simply copy the actual config in your linux directory: cp /boot/vmlinuz.config /usr/src/linux ... change in the linux directory and run make menuconfig: 'cd /usr/src/linux' and run 'make menuconfig' ... scroll down at startup-screen to 'Load Alternativ Config' and type in vmlinuz.config ... thæn read the documentation how to compile your kernel/modules
This has got to be a common question, but I've been unable to find the answer. Sorry to have to ask.
Hope you succeed Oliver -- ... don't touch the bang-bang fruit ...
