Hi mates,
I would love using Gentoo as Desktop and Server OS. I used sometime ago, but it
caused me the fact of not being able to upgrade my systems weekly or daily,
because sometimes you needed to upgrade the kernel and I was not really sure
that the config entered for the kernel (loaded through Genkernel but with
menuconfig and there load .config file) that was written with previous kernel
version building was going to not cause something weird or bad functioning of
newer built kernels with that config.
Does exist a way... where you could emerge world, update all the system,
finally end up by upgrading the kernel and being sure that the old .config you
used through menuconfig (or by any other way of importing) would not select
erroneous parameters in newer kernels?. I though there were some... lint
options for the .cofig?. I think I have used them sometime ago....
So for sumarizing, how do you manage for keep your systems up-to-date using
Gentoo?. How do you manage to keep your kernel upgraded?.
Cheers,
