I need the following config with my 2.6.7:
Code:

[ "$CONFIG_ZLIB_INFLATE" != "y" ] && badconfig
[ "$CONFIG_ZLIB_DEFLATE" != "y" ] && badconfig

but I can't find the options in "make menuconfig".

You know where it is?

It would be but is not shown in the library routines menu...

From /usr/src/linux/lib/Kconfig:
Code:

#
# compression support is select'ed if needed
#
config ZLIB_INFLATE
        tristate

config ZLIB_DEFLATE
        tristate


If you add a name after the tristate keyword, say:
Code:

config ZLIB_INFLATE
        tristate Zlib-Inflate

config ZLIB_DEFLATE
        tristate Zlib-Deflate
you will be able to select these two. But I'm sure there is a purpose why they are disabled...

hth,

zlib was left turned on for a reason methinks as the kernel for compressed sections, it does no harm and I doubt turning it off would do anything worthwhile.
