+Kernel support for JAVA binaries
+CONFIG_BINFMT_JAVA
+  JAVA binaries are becoming a universal executable format. This
+  option allows Java binaries and Java Applets to be handled invisibly
+  to the OS. As more and more Java programs become available, the use
+  for this will gradually increase. If you want to use this, read the
+  Java on Linux HOWTO, available via ftp (user: anonymous) at
+  sunsite.unc.edu:/pub/Linux/docs/HOWTO. In order to execute Java binaries,
+  you will also need to install the Java Developers Kit. If you disable
+  this option it will reduce your kernel by about one page. This is not
+  much and by itself does not warrant removing support. However its
+  removal is a good idea if you do not have the JDK installed. If you
+  don't know what to answer at this point then answer Y. You may answer
+  M for module support and later load the module when you install the
+  JDK or find a interesting Java program that you can't live without.

-  Believe it or not, there is a SCSI host adaptor of that name. It is
-  explained in section 3.6 of the SCSI-HOWTO, available via ftp (user:
-  anonymous) at sunsite.unc.edu:/pub/Linux/docs/HOWTO. If it doesn't
-  work out of the box, you may have to change some settings in
-  drivers/scsi/in2000.h.  You may also want to drop in a rewritten,
-  and probably more reliable, driver from John Shifflett, which you
-  can get from ftp://ftp.netcom.com/pub/js/jshiffle/in2000/ .  If you
-  want to compile this as a module ( = code which can be inserted in
-  and removed from the running kernel whenever you want), say M here
-  and read Documentation/modules.txt.
+  This is support for an ISA bus SCSI host adaptor. You'll find
