We also have decided to compile 1 kernel for each type of machine.  We
have decided (for security reasons) not to use modules AT ALL.  There
are quite a few modules in use in various rootkits that hide the rootkit
and do other nasty things, loadable modules are a luxury that we are
only going to allow on Desktops or in special cases.
