8 If you say Y here (and to one of the following options) and create a
9 character special file /dev/watchdog with major number 10 and minor
10 number 130 using mknod ("man mknod"), you will get a watchdog, i.e.:
11 subsequently opening the file and then failing to write to it for

16 reboot the machine) and a driver for hardware watchdog boards, which

21 The watchdog is usually used together with the watchdog daemon
22 which is available from
23 <ftp://ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/system/daemons/watchdog/>. This daemon can
24 also monitor NFS connections and can reboot the machine when the process
25 table is full.

42 The default watchdog behaviour (which you get if you say N here) is
43 to stop the timer if the process managing it closes the file
44 /dev/watchdog. It's always remotely possible that this process might
45 get killed. If you say Y here, the watchdog cannot be stopped once
