228 help
229 BSD and derivate versions of Unix (such as SunOS, FreeBSD, NetBSD,
230 OpenBSD and NeXTstep) use a file system called UFS. Some System V
231 Unixes can create and mount hard disk partitions and diskettes using
232 this file system as well. Saying Y here will allow you to read from
233 these partitions; if you also want to write to them, say Y to the
234 experimental "UFS file system write support", below. Please read the
235 file <file:Documentation/filesystems/ufs.txt> for more information.
236
237 The recently released UFS2 variant (used in FreeBSD 5.x) is
238 READ-ONLY supported.
239
240 Note that this option is generally not needed for floppies, since a
241 good portable way to transport files and directories between unixes
242 (and even other operating systems) is given by the tar program ("man
243 tar" or preferably "info tar").
244
245 When accessing NeXTstep files, you may need to convert them from the
246 NeXT character set to the Latin1 character set; use the program
247 recode ("info recode") for this purpose.
248
249 To compile the UFS file system support as a module, choose M here: the
250 module will be called ufs.
251
252 If you haven't heard about all of this before, it's safe to say N.

257 help
258 Say Y here if you want to try writing to UFS partitions. This is
259 experimental, so you should back up your UFS partitions beforehand.

261config UFS_DEBUG
262 bool "UFS debugging"
263 depends on UFS_FS
264 help
265 If you are experiencing any problems with the UFS filesystem, say
266 Y here. This will result in _many_ additional debugging messages to be
267 written to the system log.
