1config UFS_FS
2 tristate "UFS file system support (read only)"
3 depends on BLOCK
4 help
5 BSD and derivate versions of Unix (such as SunOS, FreeBSD, NetBSD,
6 OpenBSD and NeXTstep) use a file system called UFS. Some System V
7 Unixes can create and mount hard disk partitions and diskettes using
8 this file system as well. Saying Y here will allow you to read from
9 these partitions; if you also want to write to them, say Y to the
10 experimental "UFS file system write support", below. Please read the
11 file <file:Documentation/filesystems/ufs.txt> for more information.
12
13 The recently released UFS2 variant (used in FreeBSD 5.x) is
14 READ-ONLY supported.
15
16 Note that this option is generally not needed for floppies, since a
17 good portable way to transport files and directories between unixes
18 (and even other operating systems) is given by the tar program ("man
19 tar" or preferably "info tar").
20
21 When accessing NeXTstep files, you may need to convert them from the
22 NeXT character set to the Latin1 character set; use the program
23 recode ("info recode") for this purpose.
24
25 To compile the UFS file system support as a module, choose M here: the
26 module will be called ufs.
27
28 If you haven't heard about all of this before, it's safe to say N.
29
30config UFS_FS_WRITE
31 bool "UFS file system write support (DANGEROUS)"
32 depends on UFS_FS && EXPERIMENTAL
33 help
34 Say Y here if you want to try writing to UFS partitions. This is
35 experimental, so you should back up your UFS partitions beforehand.
36
37config UFS_DEBUG
38 bool "UFS debugging"
39 depends on UFS_FS
40 help
41 If you are experiencing any problems with the UFS filesystem, say
42 Y here. This will result in _many_ additional debugging messages to be
43 written to the system log.
