I meant, having an option to add anything by just creating ./files/linux-2.6/.config looks a much more flexible approach than just adding another option to the Config.in.
Ideally the makefiles would search for the custom kernel config in ./files/linux/.config ./files/linux-2.6/.config ./files/linux-2.6.26/.config sequentially ----- Original Message ---- > From: Stanislav Sinyagin <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: openwrt-devel@lists.openwrt.org > Sent: Saturday, October 18, 2008 2:09:11 AM > Subject: [OpenWrt-Devel] setting kernel config parameters from ./files/ > > Is there any reference document explaining the structure > of ./files/ directory?
