Try 'make menuconfig', or copy over a config file from a running kernel of the same version.

This is my config for my currently running kernel, that includes all the modules I need to make all of my hardware work? so if I copied that to the folder where I unpacked the 2.6.32.2 kernel and ran make menuconfig, and just accepted everything, it should create a kernel that I can use? -- Paul Cartwright Registered Linux user # 367800 Registered Ubuntu User #12459 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-REQUEST(a)lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Check the apropriate config from http://merkel.debian.org/~jurij/ before doing make menuconfig do: make oldconfig then make menuconfig And I suppose to use tool like make-kpkg See for example: http://www.debianhelp.co.uk/kernel2.6.htm Robert.
