Good Idea because the default is only suitable for single user mode
and building a new/custom kernel. Quite a few kernel tables
are sized based on 'maxusers' - in particular the coremap and swapmap
tables (which track the fragments of memory and swap space) will be
exhausted easily if you bring up a network'd kernel and start up
the various daemons.

It really doesn't - not having UMRs to deal with is a Nice Thing about
the Qbus ;) The kernel (and the standalone utilities of course)
need to know if they're on a U or Q-bus system but once a Q system
is found then the UMR handling is bypassed.
Cheers,
