Tia , JimL It's not automatic, but oldconfig defaults to "N" so 'make oldconfig' and hold down ... This is a one time thing (2.4 -> 2.5) so why write a script for it? Does anyone have any reasons why James couldn't just start compiling with a previous .config? hmm, maybe I should check the FAQ... ... nope, only one occourance of "oldconfig" and that didn't help... - 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/
