Great tool. Should be added to handbook. :)
I think my work is almost done. The kernel has 2.7MB, and I've removed all
obvious unnecessary choices, just reading the 'help' from 'make
menuconfig'. It

Hi list.
Just for curiosity, what is the size of your kernel? Mine is 3.4 MB.
Thank you,

Modules don't significantly affect the size of the kernel, only builtins.
A hand-prepared kernel may

Well, thank you for your help.
I had some problems, like no bootable system or no network, but I could
solve it and things are working pretty well pretty.
The compilation time is really small after I removed these modules, but I
think it should be smaller: apparently the 'make && make modules ins

Good for you. I've rolled my own kern
Hi there,
I'd definitely advise to you use one of Pappy's Kernel seed. Those are config
files that provide you with a good starting point to configure your own kernel.
You'll find the Kernel seeds at
http://kernel-seeds.org/
The website also has instructions on how to find out which Kernel opti

Hi list.
I've been using Gentoo for quite a long time, and today I decided to try

I'm still reading the oficial documentation, but I don't think it wi
