Does anyone think it would be possible to create at least an initial kernel |
| 2 |
.config based on dmesg output? |

My train of thought is for gentoo installation and initial emerge of linux |
| 5 |
sources. If gentoo could check the dmesg output for what failed to load (when |
| 6 |
the system is booted from the rc3 install CD for example) and see what |
| 7 |
succeded then output a .config into the /usr/src/linux directory it would go |
| 8 |
along with Gentoo's ultra coolness factor. :) |

If something like that is possble and not sci-fi I would say it belongs in the |
| 11 |
ebuild script of gentoo-sources (and/or possibly all source scripts) and |
| 12 |
invoked ONLY during the initial install of course. |

Far fetched? No way? Or should I pose it as an enhancement on bugs.gentoo.org? |

Anyone? |
