+config ACPID
+ bool "acpid"
+ default n
+ help
+ acpid listens to ACPI events coming either in textual form from
+ /proc/acpi/event (though it is marked deprecated it is still widely
+ used and _is_ a standard) or in binary form from specified evdevs
+ (just use /dev/input/event*).
+
+ It parses the event to retrieve ACTION and a possible PARAMETER.
+ It then spawns /etc/acpi/<ACTION>[/<PARAMETER>] either via run-parts
+ (if the resulting path is a directory) or directly as an executable.

+
+config MKSWAP
+ bool "mkswap"
+ default n
+ help
+ The mkswap utility is used to configure a file or disk partition as
+ Linux swap space. This allows Linux to use the entire file or

+ the capability of low-memory machines. This additional memory is
+ much slower than real RAM, but can be very helpful at preventing your

+ help
+ Enabling this feature allows automatic mounting of files (containing
+ filesystem images) via the linux kernel's loopback devices.
+ The mount command will detect you are trying to mount a file instead
+ of a block device, and transparently associate the file with a
+ loopback device. The umount command will also free that loopback
+ device.
+
+ You can still use the 'losetup' utility (to manually associate files
+ with loop devices) if you need to do something advanced, such as
+ specify an offset or cryptographic options to the loopback device.
+ (If you don't want umount to free the loop device, use "umount -D".)

+ help
+ Linux kernels >= 2.6.24 support unlimited loopback devices. They are
+ allocated for use when trying to use a loop device. The loop device
+ must however exist.
+
+ This feature lets mount to try to create next /dev/loopN device
+ if it does not find a free one.

+ select FEATURE_MOUNT_FAKE
+ help
+ Historically, Unix systems kept track of the currently mounted
+ partitions in the file "/etc/mtab". These days, the kernel exports
+ the list of currently mounted partitions in "/proc/mounts", rendering
+ the old mtab file obsolete. (In modern systems, /etc/mtab should be
+ a symlink to /proc/mounts.)
+
+ The only reason to have mount maintain an /etc/mtab file itself is if
+ your stripped-down embedded system does not have a /proc directory.
+ If you must use this, keep in mind it's inherently brittle (for
+ example a mount under chroot won't update it), can't handle modern
+ features like separate per-process filesystem namespaces, requires
+ that your /etc directory be writeable, tends to get easily confused
+ by --bind or --move mounts, won't update if you rename a directory
+ that contains a mount point, and so on. (In brief: avoid.)
+
+ About the only reason to use this is if you've removed /proc from
+ your kernel.
