Some PReP systems have residual data passed to the kernel by the
|
||
|
|
firmware. This allows detection of memory size, devices present and
|
||
|
|
other useful pieces of information. Sometimes this information is
|
||
|
|
not present or incorrect, in which case it could lead to the machine
|
||
|
|
behaving incorrectly. If this happens, either disable PREP_RESIDUAL
|
||
|
|
or pass the 'noresidual' option to the kernel.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If you are running a PReP system, say Y here, otherwise say N.

Enabling this option will create a /proc/residual file which allows
|
||
|
|
you to get at the residual data on PReP systems. You will need a tool
|
||
|
|
(lsresidual) to parse it. If you aren't on a PReP system, you don't
|
||
|
|
want this.
