8 My excuse is AFK baby, literally sleeping on me right now, and not even
9 2 months old.

11 I saw floppym's original comment opening the bug, but none of the
12 followups due to baby eating my life.

14 I'll apply this patch later today if I have a chance, but I do agree
15 with the general sentiment of this thread that the kernel configs NEED
16 to get out of genkernel; so that arches can touch them at will, and
17 other initramfs/kernel build tools can start to use them.
18
19 In the absence of any other prompt complaints, I'll create a
20 kernel-configs repo, and move the configs there.

22 The one thing that WILL have to be maintained in genkernel still, and
23 in-sync with kernel changes, are the modules_load files, esp when new
24 common stuff is added to the kernel (disk controllers & filesystems most
25 commonly).
