Subject: configuring kernel-2.5.6x

How can I feed make oldconfig a config file? I'm trying to build an rpm
with a custom kernel setup for my hardware. I already made a config file
with make menuconfig. If this is the wrong way to do it please let me
know. Oh, I don't mean the make rpm way, I'm making my own spec file.

Thanks

Just place your old config file as .config at the root of the
kernel tree, then "make oldconfig" will put it up.
