At least in the kernel Makefile there is no hint about /proc/config.gz |
| 14 |
which contains the running kernel configuration, so I think make |
| 15 |
oldconfig or your favourite kernel configuration tool is still needed. |
| 16 |
If there is no .config or .config.old it will load a default |
| 17 |
configuration which is probably not what you want. |
