installed kernel configuration

[Bill Warner]

Depending on your distibution and weather the kernel was packaged or
just installed there should be a:

/boot/config-<kernelversion>

file that you can look through.

You can also copy this file to a kernel source tree as:

/usr/src/linux/.config

and do a make xconfig and browse it that way.




If it is not there I am not sure.  I know there was talk some time ago
(2.0 days) about moveing the configure script into the final kernel
binary file and then export it into /proc somewhere but i think this was
eventual turned down by Linus as bloat that didn't have to be there.  I
am not sure if anyone changed his mind on that or not but I havent
checked.


Hope this helps
