I have an old 2.4.9 kernel that I want to upgrade and preserve/carry
over as many of the CONFIG_ options for 2.4.16[1] as I can. The problem
is sometimes they change, disappear, or new ones appear.

Are there any utilities or tricks or suggestions for porting over the
old .config to the new? If I just copy it (/usr/src/linux-old/.config)
over will it be intelligent with it? I would rather not re-tweak this
kernel from the ground up if I can help it...

Thanks,
Paul

[1] which hasn't been patched in a whole three days (it must work!).
