Good point. But shouldn't "make i386_defconfig" and "make x86_64_defconfig" do that? They *don't*, but I think that's just a bug: [dwmw2@i7 iommu-2.6]$ make V=1 i386_defconfig make -f scripts/Makefile.build obj=scripts/basic rm -f .tmp_quiet_recordmcount mkdir -p include/linux include/config make -f scripts/Makefile.build obj=scripts/kconfig i386_defconfig scripts/kconfig/conf --defconfig=arch/x86/configs/i386_defconfig Kconfig gr# # configuration written to .config # [dwmw2@i7 iommu-2.6]$ grep defconfig .config CONFIG_ARCH_DEFCONFIG="arch/x86/configs/x86_64_defconfig" -- dwmw2 -- 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/
