<H2><A NAME="ss1.1">1.1 Missing options</A>
</H2>

<P>Note that maybe some of the options listed here are not available
for you. It depends if your kernel is offering this functionality
or not.
<P>
<H2><A NAME="ss1.2">1.2 Default options</A>
</H2>

<P>When you set an option to default, it doesn't mean that as soon
as you get out of linuxconf, this option will return to default
value. Linuxconf has no way to know what are the default options
of your kernel. It means that when you set an option to default,
Linuxconf will not intervent in this option anymore, no matter
what it is set to. Remember that kernel options are usually set
in the /proc file system and, as this file system is mapped in
memory, everything will be reset when you shutdown your machine.
<P>
