OK. How about "make depend"? Do I have to run this command if I didn't add any new options/devices, but only changed some IRQ's and/or flags? > > This is important for me b/c it takes 4 hours overall to compile a > > kernel on my 486, so if I can save 30 min for skipping "make depend", > > that would make me a bit happier. > > 4 hours?!? Just what are you building? On our 486/25sx it takes ~45 > minutes. It's a decently pruned kernel, though. I've removed pretty much everything from it, exept for IDE HD, fd, and ne cards. Even the com ports. Well, if not 4 hours, but over 3 for sure (including make depend && make). -- Arcady Genkin "... without money one gets nothing in this world, not even a certificate of eternal blessedness in the other world..."
