Hi Martin I'm about build a new kernel for new hardware, so I won't have a .config that says anything about my hardware in my source tree. I too do not want anything superflouous nor to miss anything. How do I set the configuration here? The new machine is from Tiger. I has a K6-2 350, 512K L2 cache, 128 MB SDRAM, 10.6 Gig ide HDD, PS/2 mouse, serial/paralled, and K56 FAX/Modem, monitor, video is generic 1280x1024 AGP 8MB, not (likely) accellerated. MB is a 100 MHz gigabyte super socket 7, Yamaha wave table sound on board. So how do I determine the various configuration details? As you suggest, I intend to use my current configuration and make some guesses as to necessary changes. Please advise. --David Teague [EMAIL PROTECTED] Debian GNU/Linux: Because reboots are for hardware and kernel upgrades.
