I want to add a module (ntfs read) to a system running redhat enterprise WS with kernel 2.4.21-20.

Going to the kernel src directory (same version as what is running) and doing a `make oldconfig` ...will that generate a .config file that would represent the same kernel parameters and modules as a system originally installed from CD and patched using up2date? What does "oldconfig" read to determine to define in .config?
Thanks,

To see the config was used to build a distributed kernel,
install the kernel-source package for the version of the kernel you are running, and then look in /usr/src/linux-<VERSION>/configs


You can copy the one you are using to /usr/src/linux-<VERSION>/.config
