  5The following is a collection of user-oriented documents that have been
  6added to the kernel over time.  There is, as yet, little overall order or
  7organization here — this material was not written to be a single, coherent
  8document!  With luck things will improve quickly over time.

 11file describing the kernel as a whole, documentation on kernel parameters,
