Linux kernel config
I want to try to modify my kernel config starting to another kernel config file.
Where can I find it?? I tried using grep command in sources dir, but nothing. Thanks in advance |
Wait, what? What exactly do you mean?

You should be careful editing this file directly. You can always do a 'make config' for an interactive question/answer session. |
Or make menuconfig.

Or indeed
Code:
make xconfig As Mr Boardstretcher pointed out, editing a kernel configuration file directly is rather a dicey business: indeed the first line of .config says: Code:
# Automatically generated make config: don't edit |
Usually, the configs for installed kernels are kept in the /boot directory, along with the kernel images. You can use one of those as the basis for a new configuration. The LQ thread What is the difference between 'make oldconfig' and 'make xconfig' seems to explain the details.

Thanks.
