You are probably already running a kernel on your GNU/Linux workstation, so you should already have the configuration of this kernel, and should be able to use it as a basis to create a configuration file for a newer kernel. However, this configuration file is probably going to be the one of your distribution's kernel, and in these kernels, everything is compiled (all drivers, network protocols, filesystem drivers, etc.). So they take a while to compile, which might not be what you want. Otherwise, you can start a kernel configuration from scratch, it's not that hard. Run "make allnoconfig", and then select everything that's needed: bus support, ELF support, drivers, filesystem, network, etc. See <http://www.kroah.com/lkn/> for more details about this.
