\item Embedded platform case (at least on ARM 32 bit):
\begin{itemize}
\item Default configuration files are available, usually for
each CPU family.
\item They are stored in \code{arch/<arch>/configs/}, and are
just minimal \code{.config} files (only settings different
from default ones).
\item Run \code{make help} to find if one is available for your
platform
\item To load a default configuration file, just run\\
\code{make cpu_defconfig}
\item This will overwrite your existing \code{.config} file!
\item Default configurations stored in-tree as minimal
configuration files (only listing settings that are different
with the defaults) in \code{arch/<arch>/configs/}
\item \code{make help} will list the available configurations for
your platform
\item To load a default configuration file, just run
\code{make foo_defconfig} (will erase your current
\code{.config}!)
\end{itemize}
\end{itemize}
Now, you can make configuration changes (\code{make menuconfig}...).
