Linux-2.6.12-rc2v2.6.12-rc2
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!

109 | depends on PARTITION_ADVANCED && MSDOS_PARTITION | ||
110 | help | ||
111 | FreeBSD uses its own hard disk partition scheme on your PC. It | ||
112 | requires only one entry in the primary partition table of your disk | ||
113 | and manages it similarly to DOS extended partitions, putting in its | ||
114 | first sector a new partition table in BSD disklabel format. Saying Y | ||
115 | here allows you to read these disklabels and further mount FreeBSD | ||
116 | partitions from within Linux if you have also said Y to "UFS | ||

132 | Like most systems, Solaris x86 uses its own hard disk partition | ||
133 | table format, incompatible with all others. Saying Y here allows you | ||

141 | ---help--- | ||
142 | Like some systems, UnixWare uses its own slice table inside a | ||
143 | partition (VTOC - Virtual Table of Contents). Its format is | ||
144 | incompatible with all other OSes. Saying Y here allows you to read | ||
145 | VTOC and further mount UnixWare partitions read-only from within | ||
146 | Linux if you have also said Y to "UFS file system support" or | ||
147 | "System V and Coherent file system support", above. | ||
148 | |||
149 | This is mainly used to carry data from a UnixWare box to your | ||
150 | Linux box via a removable medium like magneto-optical, ZIP or | ||
151 | removable IDE drives. Note, however, that a good portable way to | ||
152 | transport files and directories between unixes (and even other | ||
153 | operating systems) is given by the tar program ("man tar" or | ||
154 | preferably "info tar"). | ||

161 | ---help--- | ||
162 | Say Y here if you would like to use hard disks under Linux which | ||
163 | were partitioned using Windows 2000's or XP's Logical Disk Manager. | ||
164 | They are also known as "Dynamic Disks". | ||
165 | |||
166 | Windows 2000 introduced the concept of Dynamic Disks to get around | ||
167 | the limitations of the PC's partitioning scheme. The Logical Disk | ||
168 | Manager allows the user to repartition a disk and create spanned, | ||
169 | mirrored, striped or RAID volumes, all without the need for | ||
170 | rebooting. | ||
171 | |||
172 | Normal partitions are now called Basic Disks under Windows 2000 and | ||
173 | XP. | ||

210 | read these partition tables and further mount SunOS partitions from | ||
211 | within Linux if you have also said Y to "UFS file system support", | ||
