Usually the best way to generate a config file for your machine is to
start with GENERIC, remove drivers for devices that you don't have,
and remove options that you don't need. Read config(8), and the
section 4 manpages for descriptions of the various devices. There
isn't any documentation for the options yet.
I think the *BSD FAQ has info on this; it's posted to
comp.unix.bsd.netbsd.announce periodically.
