How? You enter a command like "config GENERIC" and config outputs:

Don't forget to do a ``make depend''
Kernel build directory is ../compile/GENERIC

Better still, change config to not require write access to the source
tree, defaulting it's path to /sys and allowing that to be changed
by a switch. Then you could do:

cd /my/private/directory
config /sys/alpha/conf/GENERIC
make depend && make all && make install

or:

cd /my/private/directory
config -p /i/put/my/sources/here MYKERNEL
make depend && make all && make install
