Depends...

If you're using genkernel, you can pass through the previous kernel
config options like this:

$ genkernel --kernel-config=/location/of/kernel/config/file --udev all

or my preference would be:

$ genkernel --kernel-config=/location/of/kernel/config/file --udev
-menuconfig all

With a manual config, you'll have to find your old config file, and
copy it into your new /usr/src/linux directory as .config.
