Fwd: Re: [PLUG] Debian Power Down doesn't

[Sean Whitney]

Yes but I should have said
 

cp /boot/config /usr/src/linux/.config

The dot in .config is significant.  Anyone know why this file is .config and 
not config?????

trying to guess what some of those very obscure, to me, things mean.

Is this /boot/config a Debian thing or also a Redhat thing?
