Custom Kernel Configuration Options Disappear After Running "vng -b"

[annanyiri]

I want to add new fields to the .config file that are not originally included. I add the line to the ~/.config/virtme-ng/kernel.config file, then run the command scripts/kconfig/merge_config.sh -m .config ~/.config/virtme-ng/kernel.config. After that, I execute vng -b. Once this completes, the lines I added are missing from the .config file. (The lines that disappear are those that were not originally in the .config file, not even as # CONFIG... is not set entries.)

Could someone help me figure out what might be causing this?

Hello,

If you have the last version of vng, the .config file should not be overridden when running vng -b if it is present.

Also, make sure you enabled all dependences for the kernel config you need. The best is probably to run vng -k, backup the generated .config, then make menuconfig to enable your option, then check what has changed.
