Kernel Upgrade (*.35) config file


I may be mistaken but I saw recently a config file for upgrading to the 2.6.35 kernel.

Does anyone have a copy?

I have compiled more than my fair share of kernels in the past but I plan on upgrading 5 slackboxes today and if there is a semi-official/tested kernel config than that would make my day much easier.

Thanks in advance!

Why don't you use Slackware's latest huge-smp .config from *.34? It should work rather well on most boxes, even though it includes too much. If any one of us provided you a custom .config file, you can never be sure that all those 5 boxes' hardware is supported.

Just to check I follow since I've previously done this manually...

I save the kernel into my /path/to/srcdir/.config

and run make or?

Just copy your config file to <srcdir>/.config and run:
Code:
make oldconfig
make
