+ It is recommended that you compile this driver as a module (M)
+ rather than built-in (Y). This driver requires firmware at device
+ initialization time, and when built-in this typically happens
+ before the filesystem is accessible (hence firmware will be
+ unavailable and initialization will fail). If you do choose to build
+ this driver into your kernel image, you can avoid this problem by
+ including the firmware and a firmware loader in an initramfs.
- If you want to compile the driver as a module ( = code which can be
- inserted in and removed from the running kernel whenever you want),
- say M here and read <file:Documentation/kbuild/modules.txt>.
- The module will be called ipw2100.ko.
