Re: config file for Kernel compile
/boot/config-[your kernel] contains the old config.
you can
a) 'cp /boot/config-[your kernel] /usr/src/[kernel source]/.config' and
'make oldconfig' there.
b) 'make-kpkg -config=menuconfig kernel-image' and choose "Load
configuration from file" in menuconfig and specify /boot/config-[your
kernel].

One user on this list stated that I can just take my old kernel config
file and copy to the new tree (?). I assume that he meant by this
that I should copy it to those directories where I am compiling the
kernel. But in which folder exactly and I assume this is prior to
running make-kpkg -config=menuconfig kernel-image.
For the sake of information, I untar the kernel in /usr/src, then
create a link to it as linux. I go into the linux directory (i.e.,
/usr/src/linux) and then run the aforementioned command.
