Thomas, |

Ten years ago the user did |
| 29 |
genkernel all |
| 30 |
and used the default .config provided with genkernel. |
| 31 |
|
| 32 |
Today, genkernel --kernel-config=/proc/config.gz all does not improve |
| 33 |
that config. |
| 34 |
|
| 35 |
genkernel --kernel-config=/proc/config.gz all |
| 36 |
perpetuates the existing .config which is only useful if its not an |
| 37 |
earlier generic configuration. |
