Hey David,

I glanced through Wiki page and have a question. If the kernel version
changes, new parameters are added sometimes, so the kernel doesn't build
without going into menuconfig. In the Wiki, you say that the only way to
go into menuconfig is to do "cast -r", but "sorcery system-update"
doesn't do that, so the new version of the kernel will not cast during
system update in at least 50% of cases. The current situation is no
better, but maybe there's a solution to this problem that the linux-new
spell can achieve?
Just a suggestion,

Sergey.
