| Here's the problem:
| 1. Unpack the kernel sources, run make menuconfig.
| 2. Mark the necessary options.
| 3. Pick "Save an alternate configuration file", enter a filename (e.g.
/root/kernelcfg)
| 4. Pick "Exit".
| ->5. Configurator exits without saving. If type "make bzImage", it builtd all
the default options.
|
| And there's no ".config" file in kernel root directory, so i have to move
there my "kernelcfg" and
| rename it.
|
| If i just run "make menuconfig", then pick "Exit", then it asks "Save kernel
configuration?".
|
| This happens starting from kernel 2.6.20 till 2.6.20.2
| Slackware-current.
