then, as you seem to like bloated vendor OS's/kernels you'll be right at
home, then again, many people now days say Raleigh is Redmond so what does
it matter.
Have you evaluated your savings in compiling your own kernel? Vendors'
kernels may be comprehensive, but I doubt that they actually use more RAM
than a self-compiled one does.
bloated kernels increase the probability of exploits
My concern with building a kernel that's significantly different from the
vendors' is that vendors' scripts make some assumptions, such as that one
uses modules, such as that certain modules are available.
Well, thats why in slackware we dont have this problem, and on my last
remaining fedora desktop boxes, they are so unlike what the distro was
it wouldnt be an issue, thres not a hell of a lot left.
