After checking the code scripts/Configure#556-557 [http://lxr.linux.no/source/scripts/Configure?v=2.4.4#L551] : : sed -e 's/# \(CONFIG_[^ ]*\) is not.*/\1=n/' <$DEFAULTS >.config-is-not.$$ : . .config-is-not.$$ you see that also CML1 have this feature (but it is 'disabled' in makefiles). Thus Eric you are implementing in an other way (more explicit and innerited also in makefile) an already used feature. Could you add this also on CML2, so that the user should not confirm the 'No' the first time in CML2 (and thus I think it should be included also in the 2.6 kernels for the normal user transition 2.4 -> 2.6). giacomo _______________________________________________ kbuild-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/kbuild-devel
