Can't you just use a ready made kernel with everything rolled into it, and use information like the modules used along with the information provided by hal about how all the parts of your system are connected to one another ?
Possibly - if I knew how to "use information like the modules used along with the information provided by hal"! :-)
Having got a system running I suppose I can use lsmod to see what modules are loaded but what about things in the kernel (needed or not).
.... and what's hal - ah, Hardware Abstraction Layer, but isn't this to some extent after the event, if the drivers aren't there can HAL see anything?
