This question is addressed at those with kernel building experience.
The Fedora wiki has instructions on building a custom kernel:
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Docs/CustomKernel
That's good, thanks.
Let's say that someone would like to build a kernel with different
configuration options. He or she has created a new .config file. The
relevant instructions are under the heading "Configure Kernel
Options". Instruction 6 says the following:
=====
"Copy the config file to ~/rpmbuild/SOURCES/:
cp .config ~/rpmbuild/SOURCES/config-$arch"
=====
The line above appears incorrect. This was recognized by another wiki
editor as can be seen in the following sentences:
=====
"In actual fact, a Fedora 11 x86_64 machine would use the following
command, because the spec file has no config-x86_64 item, and so will
not process it. The only spec entry is for generic.
cp .config ~/rpmbuild/SOURCES/config-$arch-generic"
=====
My question is this: what should be the name of the configuration file
for Intel 32 bits architecture?
config-x86 or
config-i386 or
config-i686 or
one of the above followed by "-generic"?
