'make oldconfig' are next to Coping .config, and they are two steps.

When I invoking 'make oldconfig' withou a .config in /usr/src/linux , I get these messages: root [ /usr/src/linux ]# make oldconfig scripts/kconfig/conf -o arch/x86/Kconfig # # using defaults found in /boot/config-2.6.34 # # # configuration written to .config # So, I think 'make' should get a copy of /boot/.config-2.6.34 into /usr/src/linux. _______________________________________________ Kernelnewbies mailing list Kernelnewbies@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.kernelnewbies.org/mailman/listinfo/kernelnewbies
