I have an configuration tool I wrote about 2 years ago which allows you 
to setup your system.  It uses a modified LINT called option.list, which 
has all the options.  You can enable/disable any devices.  It also allows 
dependencies (sub-menu selectable only after option is enabled), needs 
(cannot enable unless `x' is enabled) and conflicts (irq, drq, i/o).  It 
needs:
	a) better user interface (b/w curses now)
	b) ability to add devices not in option.list
	c) dynamic devices (copy ed1 from ed0 then modify, needs `b')
	d) F1 help screens (has multiline description fields now)
	e) some pesticide probably 8)

Is anyone interested in seeing it?  Or is it too old fashioned for what 
you are working on?
