+        help
+          SCO, Xenix and Coherent are commercial Unix systems for Intel
+          machines, and Version 7 was used on the DEC PDP-11. Saying Y
+          here would allow you to read from their floppies and hard disk
+          partitions.
+
+          If you have floppies or hard disk partitions like that, it is likely
+          that they contain binaries from those other Unix systems; in order
+          to run these binaries, you will want to install linux-abi which is
+          a set of kernel modules that lets you run SCO, Xenix, Wyse,
+          UnixWare, Dell Unix and System V programs under Linux.  It is
+          available via FTP (user: ftp) from
+          <ftp://ftp.openlinux.org/pub/people/hch/linux-abi/>).
+          NOTE: that will work only for binaries from Intel-based systems;
+          PDP ones will have to wait until somebody ports Linux to -11 ;-)
+
+          If you only intend to mount files from some other Unix over the
+          network using NFS, you don't need the System V file system support
+          (but you need NFS file system support obviously).
+
+          Note that this option is generally not needed for floppies, since 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").  Note also that this option has
+          nothing whatsoever to do with the option "System V IPC". Read about
+          the System V file system in
+          <file:Documentation/filesystems/sysv-fs.txt>.
+          Saying Y here will enlarge your kernel by about 27 KB.
+
+          To compile this as a module, choose M here: the module will be called
+          sysv.
+
+          If you haven't heard about all of this before, it's safe to say N.
