Subject:   kernel recompilation question
Message-ID:  <87u2sesqsm.fsf@main.wgaf.net>

Suppose I compile a kernel. Then I decide that I want, for example
change an IRQ for a networking card, or add a flag for a hard-disk
controller.

The question is -- should I still do the "configure" and "make depend"
steps or can I go straight to "make", provided no options and/or
devices have been added?

This is important for me b/c it takes 4 hours overall to compile a
kernel on my 486, so if I can save 30 min for skipping "make depend",
that would make me a bit happier.

Thanks!
