config(1m)                 DG/UX 4.30                  config(1m)



     NAME
          config - configure a system

     SYNOPSIS
          /etc/config [ -t ] [ -q ] [ -c conf_file ] [ -m
          master_file_directory ] system_file

     DESCRIPTION
          This program generates the conf.c file from files (see
          master(4) and system(4)) which describe the hardware
          devices, software drivers, and parameters on the system.
          Most users will simply specify 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 following arguments:

          conf_file      Identifies the file to be created with the
                         configuration tables for devices on the
                         system.

          master_directory
                         Identifies the directory with the master
                         files to be used in configuring the system.
                         The default directory is /usr/etc/master.d.

          system_file    Identifies the device description file (see
                         system(4)).  This file describes all the
                         devices on the system.

          Options are:

          -t   Request a short table of major device numbers for
               character and block type devices, keywords, protocols,
               aliases, and streams.  This can facilitate the creation
               of special files.

          -q   Do not complain about errors.

          -c   Specify the name of the configuration file; conf.c is
               the default.

          -m   Specify the name of the directory containing the master
               files; /usr/etc/master.d is the default.  This
               directory is supplied with the DG/UX System.  Do not
               modify its contents unless you fully understand its
               construction.

          The construction of the master files and the system file is
          described under master(4) and system(4) in the Programmer's
          Reference for the DG/UX System.
