For those of you on both lists, sorry for the cross post, but this is an esoteric enough question, I need to broaden my net if I ever want to have a chance of finding the answer.<br>
<br>
Doe anyone know if there is a way to have the kernel dump its currently running configuration in a way that I can pump that into a kernel compile to have the kernel support all the equipment on my current machine, and only the parts of my current machine?<br>
<br>
I want a kernel compile that is the smallest possible kernel without breaking anything that is installed and configured for my current machine.<br>
<br>
Any hints?<br>
<br>

I have not seen anything similar in Ubuntu but I have not had to do any compiles of the the kernel nor drivers against the kernel in Ubuntu.<br>
