507	  The usual way to load Linux on an Alpha machine is to use MILO
508	  (a bootloader that lets you pass command line parameters to the
509	  kernel just like lilo does for the x86 architecture) which can be
510	  loaded either from ARC or can be installed directly as a permanent
511	  firmware replacement from floppy (which requires changing a certain
512	  jumper on the motherboard). If you want to do either of these, say N
513	  here. If MILO doesn't work on your system (true for Jensen
514	  motherboards), you can bypass it altogether and boot Linux directly
515	  from an SRM console; say Y here in order to do that. Note that you
516	  won't be able to boot from an IDE disk using SRM.
517
518	  If unsure, say N.

527	  This enables support for systems with more than one CPU. If you have
528	  a system with only one CPU, say N. If you have a system with more
529	  than one CPU, say Y.
530
531	  If you say N here, the kernel will run on uni- and multiprocessor
532	  machines, but will use only one CPU of a multiprocessor machine. If
533	  you say Y here, the kernel will run on many, but not all,
534	  uniprocessor machines. On a uniprocessor machine, the kernel
535	  will run faster if you say N here.

582	  The Wait for Interrupt (WTINT) PALcall attempts to place the CPU

585	  the side effect of making the cycle counter unreliable as a timing
586	  device across the sleep.
587
588	  For emulation under QEMU, definitely say Y here, as we have other
589	  mechanisms for measuring time than the cycle counter.
590
591	  For EV4 (but not LCA), EV5 and EV56 systems, or for systems running
592	  MILO, sleep mode is not supported so you might as well say N here.

612	  Under normal circumstances, this is so far and above what is needed

629
630	  For example, if one wanted the option of printing verbose
631	  machine checks, but wanted the default to be as if verbose
632	  machine check printing was turned off, then one would choose
633	  the printing mode to be 0. Then, upon reboot, one could add
634	  the boot command line "verbose_mcheck=1" to get the normal
635	  verbose machine check printing, or "verbose_mcheck=2" to get
636	  the maximum information available.

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

686	  SRM is something like a BIOS for Alpha machines. There are some
687	  other such BIOSes, like AlphaBIOS, which this driver cannot

689
690	  Despite the fact that this driver doesn't work on all Alphas (but
691	  only on those which have SRM as their firmware), it's save to
692	  build it even if your particular machine doesn't know about SRM
693	  (or if you intend to compile a generic kernel). It will simply
694	  not create those subdirectory in /proc (and give you some warning,
695	  of course).
696
697	  This driver is also available as a module and will be called
698	  srm_env then.
