Kernel upgrading & saved configurations.

[stack]

When I compiled 2.2.17, I saved the configuration to a file.

I assume I will not be able to download 2.2.18 and load this same file?

the last make xconfig/config/menuconfig is saved by default in /usr/src/linux/.config which is what i usually use when upgrading my kernel.

copy your saved configuration file to the new /usr/src/linux/.config and run make oldconfig to re-apply your settings. You may be prompted to answer some of the questions that are new to that kernel tree, but all the other questions will be answered automagically.

See the kernel compilation NHF for more info
