+//config: fdflush is only needed when changing media on slightly-broken
+//config: removable media drives. It is used to make Linux believe that a
+//config: hardware disk-change switch has been actuated, which causes Linux to
+//config: forget anything it has cached from the previous media. If you have
+//config: such a slightly-broken drive, you will need to run fdflush every time
+//config: you change a disk. Most people have working hardware and can safely
+//config: leave this disabled.

+//config: help
+//config: Linux allows you to create ramdisks. This utility allows you to
+//config: delete them and completely free all memory that was used for the
+//config: ramdisk. For example, if you boot Linux into a ramdisk and later
+//config: pivot_root, you may want to free the memory that is allocated to the
+//config: ramdisk. If you have no use for freeing memory from a ramdisk, leave
+//config: this disabled.
