[SuSE x86 linux 8.2, 2.4.24 kernel building]
I've been upgrading from 2.4.20 (SuSE) to a fresh generic kernel from ftp.kernel.org: 2.4.24. In previous builds there was a very handy virtual file /proc/config.z that allowed me to find out exactly how the currently running kernel was configured. I could then do
cd /usr/src tar xvfz /tmp/linux-2.4.24.tz cd linux-2.4.24 zcat /proc/config.z >.config make oldconfig -- hit return a few dozen times make menuconfig -- fix a few things make dep && make bzImage && make modules && make modules_install
The /proc/config.z file seems to have disappeared! Is there some config parameter that enables this? Or has it gone away between 2.4.20 and 2.4.24?
