Default config is maintained by genkernel developers ( |
| 16 |
https://gitweb.gentoo.org/proj/genkernel.git/tree/defaults). |
| 17 |
Definitely you should build own kernel configuration, and genkernel can |
| 18 |
significantly ease this task. |
| 19 |
genkernel supports --menuconfig and --oldconfig (which placed into |
| 20 |
/etc/kernels by default) options, so you can customize and rebuild new |
| 21 |
versions of kernel based on customized config. |
| 22 |
I suggest to read https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Genkernel for final |
| 23 |
enlightenment. |
