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. | ||

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. | ||

37 | config 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. | ||
