I have been creating myself a Kernel for my syste and I can not find =
what the following lines are for.  They are not mentioned in the =
HandBook.  Could someone tell me what some of these are for.  I have a =
good idea what are some of these but I am trying to determine if I need =
them or not.

-------------------------
options         FAILSAFE                #Be conservative
options         USERCONFIG              #boot -c editor
options         VISUAL_USERCONFIG       #visual boot -c editor
controller      eisa0
options         KTRACE          #kernel tracing
-------------------------

Thank you for your time,
Stephane Raimbault
