Ok, I see your concern ... My change was done in the `Makefile' not `Config' file. My suggestion was to move this to the config file. So should I describe it to change in the Makefile or do we move this time (only the setting of the MACRO) to the `Config' file ? In both ways, a small change would be convinient. If we let it in the Makefile, we should extract the option to one central point like this, to easier handle that case: : BBS_OPTS = # -DPCI_PNP_HEADER : : bin/prloader.s: loader.S $(MAKEDEPS) $(CPP) $(LCONFIG) $(BBS_OPTS) -o $@ $< bin/przloader.s: loader.S $(MAKEDEPS) $(CPP) $(LCONFIG) $(BBS_OPTS) -DZLOADER -o $@ $< And the second method is to move the "BBS_OPTS = xxxx" to the `Config' file. Or do we change nothing, and the HOTWO really says: delete the DEFINES on this two lines ... ?
