so, no auto-migration for configs?  i thought
configs used to migrate automatically.

basically i'm trying to avoid building some
modules.

When it comes to kernel nothing is fully automatic.

Go though these commands:

cd /usr/src
rm linux

eselect kernel list
eselect kernel set #

or
ln -sfn linux-new_kernel-gentoo linux

cd linux
cp ../linux-old_kernel/.config .
make oldconfig
[just keep hitting enter]
make menuconfig

You are not done yet!

1.) At this point you must copy new kernel to your boot directory.
2.) emerge --ask -vq @module-rebuild rebuild
3.) must run to update grub menu entries eg.:
# grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg

4.) What else did I miss? (somebody correct me).
