 We shouldn't really direct the user to check anything in GENERIC, since 
 the device is  there by default. I suppose we could rephrase this to 
 something like the following:
 
 "The GENERIC kernel already includes support for the md(4) device needed 
 for this operation. When building a custom kernel, make sure to include 
 the following line in your kernel configuration file:
 
 device   md   # Memory "disks"
 
 For information on building your own kernel please refer to 
 <chapter/section ref here>."
 
 Would this be appropriate?
