Hello all,

This is a another question. 

I want the Linux kernel to receive configuration information of 
small size from userland. I thought the procfs is appropriate
medium to receive it. But if there aren't no procfs in a system,
it will not work.

Question. Is there any Linux system that does not use procfs? 
Have you ever tried such system before?
