鐃緒申# ulimit.hack: Create an intermediate program for use in
+
鐃緒申# between kernel initialization and init startup.
+
鐃緒申# This is needed on a 3b system if the standard CDLIMIT is
+
鐃緒申# so small that the dumped Emacs file cannot be written.
+
鐃緒申# This program causes everyone to get a bigger CDLIMIT value
+
鐃緒申# so that the dumped Emacs can be written out.
+
鐃緒申#
+
鐃緒申# Users of V.3.1 and later should not use this; see etc/MACHINES
+
鐃緒申# and reconfig your kernel's CDLIMIT parameter instead.
+
鐃緒申#
+
鐃緒申# Caveat: Heaven help you if you screw this up.  This puts
+
鐃緒申# a new program in as /etc/init, which then execs the real init.
