Doh! I was fairly tired when I wrote that, sorry. |

I tend to just occasionally copy the kernel .config from that used on |
| 17 |
the latest Knoppix disk, and `make oldconfig` between times. I figure |
| 18 |
I don't know enough about the kernel that I'm likely to be able to |
| 19 |
select a better set of options than that, and learning what to change |
| 20 |
will surely not produce improvements worth the time expended. |

I would love a recommended "default" kernel .config - either for |
| 23 |
Gentoo or Linux in general, but based towards on "small server" use - |
| 24 |
but I'm not aware of anyone publishing one. I like the notion of a |
| 25 |
small, minimal and "sleek" kernel, but with lots of modules available |
| 26 |
to load as necessary, should I install a new PCI card. If anyone has |
| 27 |
any low-overhead suggestions, I would love to hear them. |
