Hi Bruno, Alan,

The rpmbuild interface does not provide the user a way
to go through the entire config options before proceeding
to build the kernel. If it does, I would really like to know
how it's done.

Thanx.

i second that this would be nice so that we can tailor our kernels to 
our config and not have unrequired drivers.

The current kernel is module based, so you don't have "unneeded drivers"
loaded. 

So does this mean that when you install fedora or update your kernel that it only configures the modules that your hardware requires thus creating a custom kernel for your system?
