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:
9c363b16cSConrad Meyer# o (non-loaded) random is included due to uncertainty...
10af8cf710SWarner Losh# o Many networking things are included
11af8cf710SWarner Losh#
12af8cf710SWarner Losh# For now, please run changes to these list past imp@freebsd.org
