Subject: PROBLEM: "Make nenuconfig" does not save parameters.

Here's the problem:
  1. Unpack the kernel sources, run make menuconfig.
  2. Mark the necessary options.
  3. Pick "Save an alternate configuration file", enter a filename (e.g. /root/kernelcfg)
  4. Pick "Exit".
->5. Configurator exits without saving. If type "make bzImage", it builtd all the default options.

And there's no ".config" file in kernel root directory, so i have to move there my "kernelcfg" and
rename it.

If i just run "make menuconfig", then pick "Exit", then it asks "Save kernel configuration?".

This happens starting from kernel 2.6.20 till 2.6.20.2
Slackware-current.
