Use "make config-recursive" before you start. It will present to you upfront all
the option screens that would appear during the build.

I've noticed it sometimes misses some, if you add some dependency in one of the menus.
So to be sure, once it's finished its run, if you've made any option changes, run
it again, and again and again etc.. until you no longer get menus popping up.

cheers, Jamie
