That's why I've got a small shell script that runs from a config file (also takes cmd line params for all options). You can have it perform any combination of the following actions: * mount /boot * make menuconfig * make all * make modules_install * install kernel to boot * add kernel to grub.conf * re-emerge nvidia-kernel If /boot was mounted by the script it is unmounted. Once you get a "config" file in place (sourced script that sets variables) it's a one step process, `kernmagic -v` (i like to know where it's at in the process). -- Sami Samhuri
