run `zcat /proc/config.gz > ~/kernelconfig` (i believe that's the right filename for the average Gentoo kernel; haven't booted Gentoo in a long time) and you'll end up with a full list of all the options you chose for your currently running kernel.


This shows all the config options. Options change from kernel to kernel so doing a simple diff does not always reveal the user's intentional config changes. Otherwise gentoo is painless.. in the long term.


Run "make oldconfig" after zcat. Then the previous config changes are applied.
