Hi all! I am trying to compile Linux 2.6.32 with the source code of kernel.org. Kernel that I'm using at the moment is 2.6.26-2-686 of the Debian GNU/Linux repositories. In order to generate the configuration, I've copied the file corresponding to this kernel to the directory of sources, /usr/src/linux, and I've executed make menuconfig: --------------------------------------------------------------------- # cd /usr/src/linux-2.6.32 # cp /boot/config-`uname -r` ./.config # make ARCH=x86_64 menuconfig --------------------------------------------------------------------- But when I execute 'make', restart config becomes and I'm interrogated on some details of the configuration: --------------------------------------------------------------------- antares:/usr/src/linux# make HOSTLD scripts/kconfig/conf scripts/kconfig/conf -s arch/x86/Kconfig * * Restart config... * * * RCU Subsystem * RCU Implementation > 1. Tree-based hierarchical RCU (TREE_RCU) choice[1]: 1 Enable tracing for RCU (RCU_TRACE) [N/y/?] n Tree-based hierarchical RCU fanout value (RCU_FANOUT) [32] (NEW) --------------------------------------------------------------------- Something similar happens when compiling using the Debian way. I have the impression that 'make' is taking like reference the configuration in /boot/ and the one that is in /usr/src/linux and when finding differences, it interrogates to me on some things. Is it possible? Under other circumstances, which can be the problem? Thanks in advance for your replies.
