Yes, I even changed the M's to Y for the other defines.
CONFIG_UNIXWARE_DISKLABEL=y

Like some systems, UnixWare uses its own slice table inside a
partition (VTOC - Virtual Table of Contents). Its format is
incompatible with all other OSes. Saying Y here allows you to
read VTOC and further mount UnixWare partitions read-only from
within Linux if you have also said Y to "UFS file system
support" or "System V and Coherent file system support", above.
This is mainly used to carry data from a UnixWare box to your
Linux box via a removable medium like magneto-optical, ZIP or
removable IDE drives. Note, however, that a good portable way to
transport files and directories between unixes (and even other
operating systems) is given by the tar program ("man tar" or
preferably "info tar").
