[OpenWrt-Devel] why no 8.09 RC1 announcement here?

Hi Brian, This was introduced with the FireWire modules recently added, enabling FireWire support in the kernel when they're selected. It should be fixed in [13169]. Cheers, -- Nico Brian J. Murrell wrote: > Using Kamikaze r13161 every time I run a make I get prompted for the > following kern

this is what I remember from the time I tried to adapt this to my needs. Remembering the values would not be too much of a critical thing, if the kernel parameters would be settable from the user files. There's a place for that in ./files, but this behavior is not implemented. - Original M

The makefiles override the kernel config each time you do "make menuconfig". It's not a bug, it's so by design :) - Original Message > From: Brian J. Murrell <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: OpenWrt Development List > Sent: Monday, November 10, 2008 2:53:35 PM > Subject: Re: [OpenWrt-Devel] r
