+        tristate "Kernel automounter version 4 support (also supports v3)"
+        help
+          The automounter is a tool to automatically mount remote file systems
+          on demand. This implementation is partially kernel-based to reduce
+          overhead in the already-mounted case; this is unlike the BSD
+          automounter (amd), which is a pure user space daemon.
+
+          To use the automounter you need the user-space tools from
+          <ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/daemons/autofs/v4/>; you also
+          want to answer Y to "NFS file system support", below.
+
+          To compile this support as a module, choose M here: the module will be
+          called autofs4.  You will need to add "alias autofs autofs4" to your
+          modules configuration file.
+
+          If you are not a part of a fairly large, distributed network or
+          don't have a laptop which needs to dynamically reconfigure to the
+          local network, you probably do not need an automounter, and can say
+          N here.
