Proceed with caution here.
I do not know if it is currently true, but it has in the past
been the case that (e.g.) option Q depends on device F which depends
on device B; while the relationship between Q and F is documented in
the config file, the one between F and B is not.
The easy targets are disk(/RAID) drivers and network cards.
After that? Stay alert; trust no-one; keep your un-delete key handy.
Respectfully,
Robert Huff
