Aargh!

There is no config for 2.2.17 to copy, because that was installed as a
debian package as part of the initial install
I cant use make menuconfig, because it complains curses is not installed
(but it is!)
I cant use make xconfig, because I dont have a funtional x windows install

I can't be the only person using debian 2.4.12 who needs scsi - there must
be a debian package for it somewhere!

Please help before I'm forced to go through make config...
