Compiling 2.6.5 on iMac

[Alex Solla <poopdeville@phreaker.net>]

Hi everybody,

I'm trying to configure and install kernel-source-2.6.5 on a Summer 
2001 iMac DV.  I'm trying to optimize for speed, so I'm trying to get 
rid of any hardware drivers for hardware that isn't installed.  This 
turned out to be trickier than I thought--I don't know exactly what 
hardware I have installed.  It took me over an hour to compile a kernel 
with no usb support.  I don't really want to experiment.  That would 
take much too long.

Does anyone know of a good source of information on iMac hardware?  I'm 
willing to rtfm, but I don't know what m to fr.  :-)

Thanks,
Alex
