intelligent pre-configuration

[Folkert van Heusden]

Hi,

Maybe it's nice to have a pre-kernel-configuration-auto-configurator script
in the kernel.
Like, something that detects (by parsing lspci/lsusb/lssbus's output or so)
what hardware is on-board and then creates an initial .config for your
kernel. That way the chance that you accidently forgot to include that
important ACPI-module (for your laptop) which prevents your processor from
burning gets smaller.
