This is the directory where the kernel config file lives. The LINT version contains just about all the important config options with comments. There is a older document from 1.x on the kernel config options that can be retrieved from ftp://ftp.cdrom.com/pub/FreeBSD/docs/options.*. For how to config & build check out the manpage for "config" and possibly the FAQ (recently posted to comp.os.386bsd.announce). cheers, Adrian adrian@virginia.edu ---->>>>| Support your local programmer, http://uvacs.cs.virginia.edu/~atf3r/ --->>>| STOP Software Patent Abuses NOW!
