14 | If you say Y here then read-write lock processing will count how many | |
15 | times it has tried to get the lock and issue an error message after | |
16 | too many attempts. If you suspect a rwlock problem or a kernel | |
17 | hacker asks for this option then say Y. Otherwise say N. | |

23 | ---help--- | |
24 | The 2.4 kernel changed the kernel start address from 0x310000 | |
25 | to 0x810000 to make room for the Wildfire's larger SRM console. | |
26 | Recent consoles on Titan and Marvel machines also require the | |
27 | extra room. | |
28 | ||
29 | If you're using aboot 0.7 or later, the bootloader will examine the | |
30 | ELF headers to determine where to transfer control. Unfortunately, | |
31 | most older bootloaders -- APB or MILO -- hardcoded the kernel start | |
32 | address rather than examining the ELF headers, and the result is a | |
33 | hard lockup. | |
34 | ||
35 | Say Y if you have a broken bootloader. Say N if you do not, or if | |
36 | you wish to run on Wildfire, Titan, or Marvel. | |

47 | This option is required for IEEE compliant floating point arithmetic | |
48 | on the Alpha. The only time you would ever not say Y is to say M in | |
49 | order to debug the code. Say Y unless you know what you are doing. | |
