+.Sh NAME
+.Nm autoconf
+.Nd diagnostics from the autoconfiguration code
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+When
+.Ox
+bootstraps it probes the innards of the machine
+on which it is running
+and locates controllers, drives, and other devices, printing out
+what it finds on the console.
+This procedure is driven by a system configuration table which is processed by
+.Xr config 8
+and compiled into each kernel.
+Devices which exist in the machine but are not configured into the
+kernel are usually not detected.
