Hello, We talked about improved INCLUDE_CONFIG_FILE work some time ago. I cleaned it up, and I have prepared a patch for the latest -CURRENT. It's here: http://people.freebsd.org/~wkoszek/patches/kernconf.patch If you have any suggestions, please let me know as I'd really like to see this patch into the tree before RELENG_7. Please note that the changes aren't very serious, but config(8)'s functionality is, so any worries should be stated now. With this patch, after building a kernel with: options INCLUDE_CONFIG_FILE you should be able to obtain it's configuration file with a new config(8) and it's -k option: config -k <kernelfile> The output should be ready to be redirected to a file: config -k <kernelfile> > NEWKERNEL Now, you should be able to type: config NEWKERNEL And newly created kernel should contain the very same options as the old one. Thanks, -- Wojciech A. Koszek wkoszek@FreeBSD.org http://FreeBSD.czest.pl/dunstan/
