Here is a very basic url to help you get started: |

http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Detailed_Kernel_Configuration |

not recommend that (many others will disagree)... |

I brought up the subject, recently, about this very issue, |

but it seems no many believe folks need a wiki (which is |
| 22 |
maintained) related to kernel building that does not |
| 23 |
involve genkernel. |
