+        tristate "Minix file system support"
+        depends on BLOCK
+        help
+          Minix is a simple operating system used in many classes about OS's.
+          The minix file system (method to organize files on a hard disk
+          partition or a floppy disk) was the original file system for Linux,
+          but has been superseded by the second extended file system ext2fs.
+          You don't want to use the minix file system on your hard disk
+          because of certain built-in restrictions, but it is sometimes found
+          on older Linux floppy disks.  This option will enlarge your kernel
+          by about 28 KB. If unsure, say N.
+
+          To compile this file system support as a module, choose M here: the
+          module will be called minix.  Note that the file system of your root
+          partition (the one containing the directory /) cannot be compiled as
+          a module.
