Kernel: Configuring installable kernels

Applies to

SuSE Linux: Versions since 4.2

Request:

You want to configure and compile a new kernel. You're currently using one of the standard kernels of the S.u.S.E. Linux-CD. All settings of this kernel should be preserved.

Solution:

All necessary information can be found on CD 1 in the directory

/suse/images/config

e.g. if you're using the kernel scsi01, the corresponding configuration file is called config.scsi01.ikr.

It is not possible to get this information directly from the current kernel.

In order to use this configuration, you should do the following :

cp /cdrom/suse/images/config/config.scsi01.ikr /usr/src/linux/.config
cd /usr/src/linux
make oldconfig

Now you have an exact copy of the configuration of the currently running kernel and you can adapt it according to your needs
