At least in Fedora, they ship a mode 644 config file in /boot: % ls -l /boot/config-2.6.13-1.1555_FC5 61 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 60135 Sep 14 15:55 /boot/config-2.6.13-1.1555_FC5 No need to include that in the kernel if it's right there on disk. Even Fedora doesn't believe in *that* much bloat. ;) --==_Exmh_1126815596_3148P Content-Type: application/pgp-signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.2 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Exmh version 2.5 07/13/2001 iD8DBQFDKddscC3lWbTT17ARAmAUAJ4oOmC5DX0SoH7DjvuA5MtYKui8+wCfUgXw caf5cEp3TUltiBDOJRLwBXA= =aq/G -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --==_Exmh_1126815596_3148P-- - 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/
