Not in the case of for example redhat, when you install the
kernel-source package, it has the .config file that came with that
standard kernel
 
that way if you need to recompile the kernel sources, you don’t have to
go about guessing what redhat has for the default settings..

Also, thanks to Kevin Glosser for the really nice post on kernel
compiling. I was able to do a couple but as you said, you will probably
not get it right the first time or so and I didnt, lol. What I would
like to do is know how to take what you have from the install and
manipulate that, instead of compiling from scratch. I know you put about
moving the .config file but that doesnt seem to exist UNTIL you do the
choices for compile, i.e. make xconfig.
