A freshly, not updated FC2 box:
du -hs /usr/src/linux/linux-2.6.5-1.358/
220M /usr/src/linux-2.6.5-1.358/
cd /usr/src/linux-2.6.5-1.358/
make mrproper
cp configs/kernel-2.6.5-i686.config .config
make oldconfig
make
du -hs /usr/src/linux/linux-2.6.5-1.358/
1.2GB (or thereabouts)
I have done no more examination, before I do, does anyone know what's
up? The resultant kernel and modules are fine FWIW, so no problem there,
just the size is the issue.
On a SUSE Linux 9.1 with the shipped 2.6.4-something, the final du
results are ~400MB.
