Ooops, not quite sure I got across what I was trying to say there

.
I have 2 hard drives, one running 11.2m2, the other running 11.1 (with a self compiled kernel).
Both drives run in my laptop and are setup as fully operational (apart from the fact that the last update sadly hosed my m2).
What I was thinking of doing was installing my m2 drive and booting, copying the
.config file from it's 2.6.30(something) kernel, then installing my 11.1 drive, downloading the same version kernel sources as my m2 version, and compiling it (on the 11.1 drive) using the .config from the m2.
Sounds complicated, but the reason is that I have never been able to compile a kernel to the same suse specifications.
It works, but not quite the same, I always have to disable the apparmor stuff (not that I really need it, but I hate seeing failed messages on boot!), and I really like the nice background to vt1

.
I could just go ahead and try it I expect, but it takes a very long time to compile.
