Compiling Kernel with Dynamic Module Loading Enabled

["Tony Vandiver" <tony_vandiver@bellsouth.net>]

Hi All,

   What options do I need to use to compile a kernel that doesn't build the 
modules into it, but instead allows me to use modconf to select modules as 
needed?  I've rebuilt the kernel (2.4.18) about 20 times trying to get just 
the right combination, and every time I get it wrong, I get a kernel panic 
and have to start over from scratch.  Is there a better way to tweak and 
test the kernel than to reinstall from the CD?

Thanks,
