I try to compile a kernel on and for the PS3 using Geoff Levand's sources http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/geoff/ps3-linux.git;a=summary and did a 'make ps3_defconfig' before doing 'make gconfig'. Now I'd care much more for 300k less in kernel size than for full symbols in the OOPS, so I would like to deselect KALLSYMS and KALLSYMS_ALL. The latter is even suggested to disable in the help text. But whatever I do, those two are always selected. Even when I deselect them using vi, the next time I do a 'make gconfig' on the config-file they are on again. Is this done for some special reason? Or can they be turned off? Thank you, Simon
