-config MINIX_FS
- tristate "Minix fs support"
- 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- but has been superseded by the second extended file system ext2fs.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.

-config ROMFS_FS
- tristate "ROM file system support"
- ---help---
- This is a very small read-only file system mainly intended for
- initial ram disks of installation disks, but it could be used for
- other read-only media as well. Read
- <file:Documentation/filesystems/romfs.txt> for details.
-
- To compile this file system support as a module, choose M here: the
- module will be called romfs. Note that the file system of your
- root partition (the one containing the directory /) cannot be a
- module.
