[gentoo-user] use 2.6 live CD config to build on my desktop?

2003-11-21 Thread Eric A Muehlstein
I've been struggling with configuring and building a 2.6 kernel on and
off for a couple of weeks.  I can't seem to build a kernel which loads
properly; however, the 2.6 livecd boots fine.  The easy answer seems to
be that i could use the kernel settings from the CD to build a working
kernel on my desktop.  I read somewhere in the gentoo 1.4 install guide
that you could:

cat /proc/config > .config

I booted the 2.6 live CD and ran:

#mount /dev/hda6 /mnt/gentoo
#cat /proc/config > /mnt/gentoo/root/.conf


but apparently, /proc/config does exist.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.
