NAME

autoconf − diagnostics from the autoconfiguration code

DESCRIPTION

When UNIX bootstraps, it probes the innards of the machine it is running on and locates controllers, drives, and other devices, printing out what it finds on the console.  This procedure is driven by a system configuration table which is processed by config(8) and compiled into each kernel.
