Bug 186653 – [PATCH genkernel 3/4] Add support for custom %%ARCH%%/config.sh files, for usage with crazy sub-architectures

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Hosted Projects

[Description Robin Johnson 2007-07-26 07:49:58 UTC]

Add support for custom %%ARCH%%/config.sh files, for usage with crazy
sub-architectures. This is useful for some MIPS machines that might need the
vmlinux.ecoff file for netboot instead of the zImage or raw vmlinux file.

I'd like to include this, but under the same rules as the modules_load changes.

What do you think?

[Comment 3 Andrew Gaffney (RETIRED) 2008-11-15 06:56:16 UTC]

I think this is fine as-is, except for the possibility of specifing multiple files like I mentioned in http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=186652#c4

PS: Adding keyword "Inclusion" to better show this bugs nature in searches...

Something like this is implemented and possible with genkernel-4. Closing...
