- The journalling code included in this driver means you do not have

- at the time the system crashed, and can ensure that your file system
- is consistent without the need for a lengthy check.

- system.

- Another way to read and write MSDOS floppies and hard drive
- partitions from within Linux (but not transparently) is with the

-
- If you need to move large files on floppies between a DOS and a
- Linux box, say Y here, mount the floppy under Linux with an MSDOS
- file system and use GNU tar's M option. GNU tar is a program
- available for Unix and DOS ("man tar" or "info tar").

- transparent, i.e. the MSDOS files look and behave just like all
- other Unix files.

- If you have Windows 95 or Windows NT installed on your MSDOS
- partitions, you should use the VFAT file system (say Y to "VFAT fs

- generated by Windows 95 / Windows NT.
-
- This option will enlarge your kernel by about 7 KB. If unsure,

- help
- NTFS is the file system of Microsoft Windows NT, 2000, XP and 2003.

- safe, write support available. For write support you must also
- say Y to "NTFS write support" below.
-
- There are also a number of user-space tools available, called
- ntfsprogs. These include ntfsundelete and ntfsresize, that work
- without NTFS support enabled in the kernel.
-
- This is a rewrite from scratch of Linux NTFS support and replaced
- the old NTFS code starting with Linux 2.5.11. A backport to
- the Linux 2.4 kernel series is separately available as a patch
- from the project web site.
-
- For more information see <file:Documentation/filesystems/ntfs.txt>

-config NTFS_DEBUG
- bool "NTFS debugging support"
- depends on NTFS_FS
- help
- If you are experiencing any problems with the NTFS file system, say
- Y here. This will result in additional consistency checks to be
- performed by the driver as well as additional debugging messages to
- be written to the system log. Note that debugging messages are
- disabled by default. To enable them, supply the option debug_msgs=1
- at the kernel command line when booting the kernel or as an option
- to insmod when loading the ntfs module. Once the driver is active,
- you can enable debugging messages by doing (as root):
- echo 1 > /proc/sys/fs/ntfs-debug
- Replacing the "1" with "0" would disable debug messages.
-
- If you leave debugging messages disabled, this results in little
- overhead, but enabling debug messages results in very significant
- slowdown of the system.
-
- When reporting bugs, please try to have available a full dump of
- debugging messages while the misbehaviour was occurring.
-
-config NTFS_RW
- bool "NTFS write support"
- depends on NTFS_FS
- help
- This enables the partial, but safe, write support in the NTFS driver.
-
- The only supported operation is overwriting existing files, without
- changing the file length. No file or directory creation, deletion or
- renaming is possible. Note only non-resident files can be written to
- so you may find that some very small files (<500 bytes or so) cannot
- be written to.
-
- While we cannot guarantee that it will not damage any data, we have
- so far not received a single report where the driver would have
- damaged someones data so we assume it is perfectly safe to use.
-
- Note: While write support is safe in this version (a rewrite from
- scratch of the NTFS support), it should be noted that the old NTFS
- write support, included in Linux 2.5.10 and before (since 1997),
- is not safe.
-
- This is currently useful with TopologiLinux. TopologiLinux is run
- on top of any DOS/Microsoft Windows system without partitioning your
- hard disk. Unlike other Linux distributions TopologiLinux does not
- need its own partition. For more information see
- <http://topologi-linux.sourceforge.net/>
-
- It is perfectly safe to say N here.

- help
- This is a virtual file system providing information about the status

- your hard disk: the files are created on the fly by the kernel when
- you try to access them. Also, you cannot read the files with older
- version of the program less: you need to use more or cat.
-
- It's totally cool; for example, "cat /proc/interrupts" gives

- information about your system gathered from the /proc file system.
