Re: what is difference of kconfig(5) and kconfig(1M)?
And now that you understand what the various manpages sections contain, I presume that you are aware that you can select the section you want by doing:
# man 5 kconfig
...to select section-5 instead of the default order yielding '1M' first in this case:
# man kconfig
I hope, too, that you have used 'catman -w' or 'catman -m' to create the 'whatis' manpage database. See the manpages for 'catman'. The 'whatis' database allows you to do keyword searches. For example:
# man -k kconfig
ckconfig(1) - verify the path names of all the FTP configuration files.
kconfig(1M) - manage kernel configurations
kconfig(5) - introduction to kernel configuration commands
...or:
# man -k kernel
# man -k driver
Regards!

-bash-3.2# catman -m
Macro argument too long.
-bash-3.2#

This gives general intro about kernel config.
This can be used to understand how configuration works.
kconfig (1m) - manage kernel configurations.
This gives info about the various options used in the 'kconfig' command itself. This would be the actual command options sysadmin would be required to know/use.

Re: what is difference of kconfig(5) and kconfig(1M)?
With regard to the failure you experienced running 'catman', try running it in the standard HP-UX Posix shell environment. At your Bash prompt type:
# /usr/bin/sh
# catman -w
# exit
...or if you prefer, simply create a small Posix shell and run it:
# cat wrapper
#!/usr/bin/sh
catman -w
...then:
# ./wrapper
By the way, I hope that you have not changed the default shell for 'root' to be anything other than '/sbin/sh'. If you have, you have a recipe for an system that will not boot properly.
Regards!

I also thought of mentioning using a real shell but I didn't see why bash would give that error and assumed it was some issue in catman(1m).
>At your Bash prompt type:
# /usr/bin/sh
# catman -w
You could also use: sh -c "catman -w"
