Messages in this thread Patch in this message |  | | | From | Keith Owens <> | | Subject | one line patch to save .config information | | Date | Sat, 01 Feb 1997 00:48:33 +1100 | |
Rather than save the .config options in the kernel and bloat it, append
them to System.map with the same address as _end. Of course if you
have no map for your current kernel you are in trouble anyway.
The patch might affect code that reads System.map. klogd 1.3-3 does
not object to the extra records.
