Subject: Reg Kernel Configuration parameters

Hi,,

For setting kernel config parameters, is the method of changing them in "make menuconfig" the only way or are there  anyther ways to do it?

these config get added up as modules while kernel compiles. If there is a way to get this code and convert to loadable kernel modules (LKM) so that in that case the config parameters can be set on-the-fly dynamically.

Is this possible ?
============================

Hi,
 
I'm not sure if I  understood your question completely. There are other ways of generating the kernel  config file (defconfig, oldconfig, all config etc). But I'm not sure if that WAS  your question.
 
Are you asking if we can change kernel configuration post compile? The answer is NO. That is because the kernel  configuration is needed while compilation.
