NAME
       config - configure a system

SYNOPSIS
       /usr/sbin/config [ -q ] [ -c conf_file ] [ -m master_dir ]
       system_file

   where:
       conf_file     The C language source file to be created with the
                     configuration tables describing the configurable kernel
                     components to be used in the system.  The default is
                     conf.c.

       master_dir    The directory with the master files to be used in
                     configuring the system.  All files in this directory
                     will be processed as master files (see master(4)).  The
                     default is /usr/etc/master.d.

       system_file   The device description file (see system(4)).  This file
                     describes all the configurable kernel components
                     desired in the kernel to be built.

DESCRIPTION
       This program generates a C language source file based on the files
       (see master(4) and system(4)) which describe the hardware devices,
       software drivers, STREAMS modules, socket protocols, and tunable
       parameters on the system.  This C source file can then be compiled
       and linked against kernel libraries to produce a new kernel.  Most
       users will simply provide config with the name of the system file
       describing their system (see below).  Users with greater kernel
       experience may vary the configuration process with the -c and -m
       arguments.

       Options are:

       -q   Do not complain about errors.

       -c   Specify a non-default name for the configuration file; conf.c is
            the default.

       -m   Specify a non-default master file directory; /usr/etc/master.d
            is the default.

FILES
       /usr/etc/master.d   default master file directory
       conf.c              default output configuration table file

DIAGNOSTICS
       Diagnostics are routed to the standard output and are self-
       explanatory.
