Description Sebastian Wenner 2003-06-24 13:20:56 UTC
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686) Gecko/20030530 Galeon/1.3.4

Description of problem:
When trying to configure a summit kernel the option CONFIG_SUMMIT=y is lost
during the configuration process.
This results in a incomplete kernel which is not capable of fully handling the
summit-chipset.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
kernel-source-2.4.9-e.12 and later

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. cp configs/kernel-2.4.9-i686-summit.config .config
2. grep -i summit .config
-> CONFIG_SUMMIT=y
3. make oldconfig
4. grep -i summit .config
-> nothing
    

Additional info:

Comment 1 Arjan van de Ven 2003-06-24 13:23:11 UTC
without manually applying the summit patches this is expected behavior.
Please apply the summit patches manually first.

Comment 2 Sebastian Wenner 2003-06-25 09:32:23 UTC
applying the patches fixed it.
oldconfig is now working and I'm seeing all of the CPUs.

thanks fpr your help :)
