-This documentation is  part of a soon (or  so we hope) to be  released book on
-the SuSE  Linux distribution. As  there is  no complete documentation  for the
-/proc file system and we've used  many freely available sources to write these
-chapters, it  seems only fair  to give the work  back to the  Linux community.
-This work is  based on the 2.2.*  kernel version and the  upcoming 2.4.*. I'm
-afraid it's still far from complete, but we  hope it will be useful. As far as
-we know, it is the first 'all-in-one' document about the /proc file system. It
-is focused  on the Intel  x86 hardware,  so if you  are looking for  PPC, ARM,
-SPARC, AXP, etc., features, you probably  won't find what you are looking for.
-It also only covers IPv4 networking, not IPv6 nor other protocols - sorry. But
-additions and patches  are welcome and will  be added to this  document if you
-mail them to Bodo.
