Attached is a patch to arch/i386/Kconfig for Linux 2.5.73. I didn't change any logic, only the help messages. I've fixed typos, made some messages more clear and concise, and used my experience as a native English speaker to make some corrections. Besides purely editorial changes, I've added some details here and there, and updated things that sound as if they were written when PCI was brand new, or computers without 387 FPUs were common :) I left in some old-sounding stuff that adds character; It's fun to know Linux isn't written by robots. (yet :)
Please CC: me on any replies, as I'm not subscribed to the lkml. Let me know if the kind of straight-to-the-point help message I've made is good, or if more "this option is used for ..." would be better, in case I feel like tackling another one of these files.
Happy hacking,
