2af8cf710SWarner Losh# MINIMAL -- Mostly Minimal kernel configuration file for FreeBSD/amd64
3af8cf710SWarner Losh#
4af8cf710SWarner Losh# Many definitions of minimal are possible. The one this file follows is
5af8cf710SWarner Losh# GENERIC, minus all functionality that can be replaced by loading kernel
6af8cf710SWarner Losh# modules.
7af8cf710SWarner Losh#
8af8cf710SWarner Losh# Exceptions:
9af8cf710SWarner Losh# o While UFS is buildable as a module, the current module lacks
10af8cf710SWarner Losh#   some features (ACL, GJOURNAL) that GENERIC includes.
11af8cf710SWarner Losh# o acpi as a module has been reported flakey and not well tested, so
12af8cf710SWarner Losh#   is included in the kernel.
13af8cf710SWarner Losh# o random is included due to uncertaty...
14af8cf710SWarner Losh# o Many networking things are included
15af8cf710SWarner Losh#
