OK, copying the .config file to /boot/ would be a good idea if you do so. However it is not necessary to do so, nothing relies on config being present in /boot/, ebuilds that need information about kernel config take that from /usr/src/linux/.config. It is just a (good) practice to keep the config in /boot/ in case you ever need a backup. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.2.2-ecc0.1.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFElUsZ6q4f+IV6B/wRAoxPAJsGTejGfL59p75sdAw9iVyI6NxdRwCfWKqp PaKSrkwY6bVf3xME8jtNZZ8= =1+FQ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
