NAME

       mkconf - generate configuration tables

SYNOPSIS

       mkconf

DESCRIPTION

       Mkconf examines a machine configuration table on its standard input.  Its output is a pair of files l.s and c.c.  The first is an assembler
       program that represents the interrupt vectors located in low memory addresses; the second contains initialized block and  character  device
       switch tables.

       Input to mkconf is a sequence of lines.	The following describe devices on the machine:

	    pc	 (PC11)
	    lp	 (LP11)
	    rf	 (RS11)
	    hs	 (RS03/RS04)
	    tc	 (TU56)
	    rk	 (RK03/RK05)
	    tm	 (TU10)
	    rp	 (RP03)
	    hp	 (RP04/5/6)
	    ht	 (TU16)
	    dc*  (DC11)
	    kl*  (KL11/DL11-ABC)
	    dl*  (DL11-E)
	    dp*  (DP11)
	    dn*  (DN11)
	    dh*  (DH11)
	    dhdm*     (DM11-BB)
	    du*  (DU11)

       The  devices  marked  with  *  may  be  preceded  by  a number telling how many are to be included.  The console typewrite is automatically
       included; don't count it as part of the KL or DL specification.	Count DN's in units of 4 (1 system unit).

       The following lines are also accepted.

       root dev minor
	    The specified block device (e.g.  hp) is used for the root.  minor is a decimal number giving the minor device.  This line must appear
	    exactly once.

       swap dev minor
	    The specified block device is used for swapping.  If not given the root is used.

       pipe dev minor
	    The specified block device is used to store pipes.	If not given the root is used.

       swplo number

       nswap number
	    Sets the origin (block number) and size of the area used for swapping.  By default, the not very useful numbers 4000 and 872.

       pack Include the packet driver.	By default it is left out.

       mpx  Include the multiplexor driver.  By default it is left out.

FILES

       l.s, c.c  output files

BUGS

       The  set  of  devices  it  knows about, the set of drivers included, and the set of devices on the machine are mutually incomparable.  Some
       handwork is certain to be necessary.  Because of floating vectors that may have been missed, It is mandatory to check the l.s file to  make
       sure it corresponds with reality.
