A few other small points about pre3.

1. The pci.h/3c59x patches were not added. This fixed my 'Unrecognized
pci hardware' problem. Find it at
http://www.linuxhq.com/patch/20-p0542.html

2. Could it be that the wrong menuconfig patch was added? The pre2 and
pre3 have different linux/scripts/Menuconfig patches, and the pre3 causes
'make zImage' to go back into 'make config'. The expr patch successfully
now allows integer changes. No .config is created.

3. Are the 'filename.c needs config but has not included config file'
going to be removed?

4. Larry M. Augustin's (lma@varesearch.com) memdetect patch was not
added. This succeeded in recognizing my 96meg box. I don't see it on
linuxhq now, but the 2.0.30 patch worked great.
