Saying Y here includes support for SquashFS 4.0 (a Compressed

filesystem for Linux. It uses zlib compression to compress both

greater than 4K are supported up to a maximum of 1 Mbytes (default
block size 128K). SquashFS 4.0 supports 64 bit filesystems and files

Squashfs is intended for general read-only filesystem use, for
archival use (i.e. in cases where a .tar.gz file may be used), and in
embedded systems where low overhead is needed. Further information

NCP (NetWare Core Protocol) is a protocol that runs over IPX and is
used by Novell NetWare clients to talk to file servers. It is to
IPX what NFS is to TCP/IP, if that helps. Saying Y here allows you
to mount NetWare file server volumes and to access them just like
any other Unix directory. For details, please read the file
<file:Documentation/filesystems/ncpfs.txt> in the kernel source and
the IPX-HOWTO from <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>.
You do not have to say Y here if you want your Linux box to act as a
file *server* for Novell NetWare clients.
General information about how to connect Linux, Windows machines and
Macs is on the WWW at <http://www.eats.com/linux_mac_win.html>.
To compile this as a module, choose M here: the module will be called
ncpfs. Say N unless you are connected to a Novell network.

depends on INET
help
Coda is an advanced network file system, similar to NFS in that it
enables you to mount file systems of a remote server and access them
with regular Unix commands as if they were sitting on your hard
disk. Coda has several advantages over NFS: support for
disconnected operation (e.g. for laptops), read/write server
replication, security model for authentication and encryption,
persistent client caches and write back caching.
If you say Y here, your Linux box will be able to act as a Coda
*client*. You will need user level code as well, both for the
client and server. Servers are currently user level, i.e. they need
no kernel support. Please read
<file:Documentation/filesystems/coda.txt> and check out the Coda
home page <http://www.coda.cs.cmu.edu/>.
To compile the coda client support as a module, choose M here: the
module will be called coda.
config AFS_FS
tristate "Andrew File System support (AFS) (EXPERIMENTAL)"

select AF_RXRPC
help
If you say Y here, you will get an experimental Andrew File System
driver. It currently only supports unsecured read-only AFS access.
See <file:Documentation/filesystems/afs.txt> for more information.
If unsure, say N.
config AFS_DEBUG
bool "AFS dynamic debugging"
depends on AFS_FS
help
Say Y here to make runtime controllable debugging messages appear.
See <file:Documentation/filesystems/afs.txt> for more information.
If unsure, say N.
config 9P_FS
tristate "Plan 9 Resource Sharing Support (9P2000) (Experimental)"
depends on INET && NET_9P && EXPERIMENTAL
help
If you say Y here, you will get experimental support for
Plan 9 resource sharing via the 9P2000 protocol.
See <http://v9fs.sf.net> for more information.
If unsure, say N.
