This time I paid closer attention to what was going on. After the "rpmbuild -bp --target=`uname -m` kernel-2.6.spec" step, the ~/rpmbuild/BUILD/kernel-2.6.9/linux-2.6.9 directory contains among other things these two files: -rw-r--r-- 1 rpmbuild rpmbuild 50332 Mar 12 15:32 .config -rw-r--r-- 1 rpmbuild rpmbuild 61600 Mar 12 15:31 .config.old
I ran into much the same today using xconfig to build a RHEL-5 2.6.18-8.1.1.el5 kernel with a single change. I ran a diff and IIRC got about 50-60 lines of output. I'm sort of under the impression you can open the config with xconfig and save it and it will differ, but I haven't tested that. rgds/ldv _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@xxxxxxxxxx http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
