5.3.5. - Fine Tuning the Hardware Configuration



You may wish to fine tune the installation by avoiding linking in hardware support for devices you will never be using at your site. The advantage is only that the spec executable images will be smaller and will require a bit less memory when running. The savings will be only on the order of 100 kbytes or so, depending on how many hardware modules are eliminated. You select which hardware modules are included by editing the file u_hdw.c and undefining the appropriate hardware keywords. After doing so, you will need to redo the installation, although you may use the -p flag for a partial installation to save time.
