85 run on any supported Alpha system. However, if you configure a
86 kernel for your specific system, it will be faster and smaller.

488 There are two different types of booting firmware on Alphas: SRM,
489 which is command line driven, and ARC, which uses menus and arrow
490 keys. Details about the Linux/Alpha booting process are contained in
491 the Linux/Alpha FAQ, accessible on the WWW from
492 <http://www.alphalinux.org/>.
493
494 The usual way to load Linux on an Alpha machine is to use MILO
495 (a bootloader that lets you pass command line parameters to the
496 kernel just like lilo does for the x86 architecture) which can be
497 loaded either from ARC or can be installed directly as a permanent
498 firmware replacement from floppy (which requires changing a certain
499 jumper on the motherboard). If you want to do either of these, say N
500 here. If MILO doesn't work on your system (true for Jensen
501 motherboards), you can bypass it altogether and boot Linux directly
502 from an SRM console; say Y here in order to do that. Note that you
503 won't be able to boot from an IDE disk using SRM.
504
505 If unsure, say N.

552 The Wait for Interrupt (WTINT) PALcall attempts to place the CPU
553 to sleep until the next interrupt. This may reduce the power
554 consumed, and the heat produced by the computer. However, it has
555 the side effect of making the cycle counter unreliable as a timing
556 device across the sleep.
557
558 For emulation under QEMU, definitely say Y here, as we have other
559 mechanisms for measuring time than the cycle counter.
560
561 For EV4 (but not LCA), EV5 and EV56 systems, or for systems running
562 MILO, sleep mode is not supported so you might as well say N here.
563
564 For SMP systems we cannot use the cycle counter for timing anyway,
565 so you might as well say Y here.

573 Process creation and other aspects of virtual memory management can

575 allocations. This equates to about 8GB.

577 Under normal circumstances, this is so far and above what is needed
578 as to be laughable. However, there are certain applications (such
579 as benchmark-grade in-kernel web serving) that can make use of as
580 much vmalloc space as is available.

592 This option allows the default printing mode to be set, and then
593 possibly overridden by a boot command argument.
594
595 For example, if one wanted the option of printing verbose
596 machine checks, but wanted the default to be as if verbose
597 machine check printing was turned off, then one would choose
598 the printing mode to be 0. Then, upon reboot, one could add
599 the boot command line "verbose_mcheck=1" to get the normal
600 verbose machine check printing, or "verbose_mcheck=2" to get
601 the maximum information available.
602

646 If you enable this option, a subdirectory inside /proc called

649 to all others (by their internal number).

651 SRM is something like a BIOS for Alpha machines. There are some
652 other such BIOSes, like AlphaBIOS, which this driver cannot
653 support (hey, that's not SRM!).
654
655 Despite the fact that this driver doesn't work on all Alphas (but
656 only on those which have SRM as their firmware), it's save to
657 build it even if your particular machine doesn't know about SRM
658 (or if you intend to compile a generic kernel). It will simply
659 not create those subdirectory in /proc (and give you some warning,
660 of course).
661
662 This driver is also available as a module and will be called
663 srm_env then.
