Description Eric Edgar (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-01-10 07:20:02 UTC 
This patch adds support for building usermode and xen0 and xenU kernels.
The .config files need work but they work for my use.  A more generic version of them should be made.  The 2.4 version of these kernels have not been tested.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
um and xen kernels are created.

Also a new option should be added to genkernel to output the kernel, modules 
and initrd to a different location than /boot if desired.
