Somebody in the thread at some point said:

| So the right command line would be something like "./build GTA02 dummy"
| to find within the "GTA02" directory the modules tar.gz afterwards.

Yes but dummy really is a dummy param, it is just checked if it is there
or not, so I usually use ./build GTA02 x for example.  To save time,
most builds I am not giving that second parameter at all.

| But before i first run the build script i have to create the "GTA02"
| directory by hand and copy the .config into it. Else the build script
| doesn't find any .config and starts the console configuration of the
kernel.

Right, part of the gain from this change is that the configs along with
the .o files all live in their little worlds now, so nothing gets
overwritten in ./GTA02 if you build ./GTA03.  I realize that's not
exactly being a problem for most people yet, but it was getting pretty
bad here having to copy over the config and wait 10+ minutes every time
I had to switch to look at something.
