# by default are listed but commented out with a leading # character.
# Note that when adding or removing most of these options from an
# existing kernel configuration, it is necessary to do a "make clean"
# before rebuilding the kernel. Existing object files that depend
# on the state of these options will not be rebuilt otherwise.
# The SOURCE option indicates that the kernel should be compiled
# from the sources rather than just linking the distributed object files.
# This option may be used only after the kernel source package
# (from the source CD) is installed.
