Hi Folks,

I usually compile the linux kernel by copying current system .config file. But the
problem it compile bunch things that I don't which is required. My aim
is setup filesystem environmrnt setup on my laptop.

Could somebody point the minimal .config file that will save from me
reading all the options and compile the kernel quickly and test it.
'make localmodconfig'

Read the help file for it first, for how to use it properly (i.e. plug
in all devices you want to use on the machine first.)

And a simple 'make help' provides a lot of information, I suggest
reading it as it contains lots of options like this to help you out.

hope this helps,
