In "General Setup" you must first enable: |
| 2 |
"Prompt for development and/or incomplete code/drivers" (CONFIG_EXPERIMENTAL) |
| 3 |
|
| 4 |
Then the CONFIG_NETCONSOLE option will appear as: |
| 5 |
"Network console logging support (EXPERIMENTAL)" |
| 6 |
|
| 7 |
Under: |
| 8 |
-> Device Drivers |
| 9 |
-> Network device support |
| 10 |
|
| 11 |
Good luck, |
