I've just skimmed through the code in Configure to
see if there is a way to make it shut up and just
default everything new to NO so I can use it inside
a noninteractive script.
Did I miss it or is it something that isn't there
to be found?
I think I'd not be the only one to find it useful
to make it be seen and not heard during a
make oldconfig :-)

Jonathan Morton suggested the yes is the answer
as well. I tested both out and diffed against one
done manually. no seems to just die, yes does just
the right thing.
Thanks much to all who replied.
