153	  size is about 10% smaller with bzip2, in comparison to gzip.
154	  Bzip2 uses a large amount of memory. For modern kernels you

172	  comparison to gzip. On architectures for which there is a BCJ
173	  filter (i386, x86_64, ARM, IA-64, PowerPC, and SPARC), XZ
174	  will create a few percent smaller kernel than plain LZMA.
175

228	  you want to run the DOS emulator dosemu under Linux (read the
229	  DOSEMU-HOWTO, available from <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>),
230	  you'll need to say Y here.

278	  If you say Y here, a user level program will be able to map
279	  file names to handle and then later use the handle for
280	  different file system operations. This is useful in implementing
281	  userspace file servers, which now track files using handles instead
282	  of names. The handle would remain the same even if file names

292	  system call.  If you intend to run programs built on libc5 or

1800	  Kernel modules are small pieces of compiled code which can

1803	  tool to add (and sometimes remove) them.  If you say Y here,
