Nope, you're not missing anything. I'm just a little mixed up. You can find the actual "Sparse Memory" option in this patch: http://sr71.net/patches/2.6.12/2.6.12-rc1-mhp2/broken-out/B-sparse-151-add-to-mm-Kconfig.patch I could easily remove the references to it in the patches that I posted RFC, but I hoped that they would get in quickly enough that it wouldn't matter. Also, the help option does say that all of the options probably won't show up. So, users shouldn't be horribly confused if they don't see the sparsemem option. -- Dave - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
