Sam's patch only made a subtle difference for all*config, but otherwise it would have made little difference, i.e. you still had to edit .config. The maybe only remaining issue is which default config to use for defconfig, when ARCH isn't specified, but that is purely a Kbuild issue. bye, Roman - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [email protected] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
