Hi

Surely there's nothing stopping you copying your config file into the linux
directory after the mrproper and running your old config.

make mrproper cleans things up really well but with a freshly patched
kernel source tree that shouldn't be necessary unless you have some bad

was really getting to love "make oldconfig":).
