Hello: I started working on a barebones kernel for the server I am running on from something someone else had and it seems to be going good. I would like to take a good clean kernel and use it for my netbook, but I'm not really sure what the essentials are and what can be disabled. Basically I want it to be as small as possible with minimal module overhead. Has anyone else done something like this for a netbook or perhaps something else I could borrow? Is there somewhere where I can dig deeper into the specifics of the kernel configuration?
take a look at the "make localmodconfig" target, which will configure a kernel with only those modules that are currently loaded. rday -- ======================================================================== Robert P.
