Lguest is a tiny in-kernel hypervisor. Selecting this will allow your kernel to boot under lguest. This option will increase your kernel size by about 10k. If in doubt, say N.

If you say Y here, make sure you say Y (or M) to the virtio block and net drivers which lguest needs.

The guest needs code built-in, even if the host has lguest support as a module. The drivers are tiny, so we build them in too.
