You can't get every option at the same time. For example, you can't have ethernet support as module, then make the tulip driver built-in. Also some features require other features. For example you must choose to enable auto-network configuration (bootp/dhcp) at boot time in order to have the option of choosing root-over-NFS. In general see what features that particular option might require and select it. (the "Code Maturity" option is a requirement of a lot of other options) -D -- Whoever gives heed to instruction prospers, and blessed is he who trusts in the Lord. Proverbs 16:20
