| 6 | Saying Y here includes support for CramFs (Compressed ROM File |
| 7 | System). CramFs is designed to be a simple, small, and compressed |
| 8 | file system for ROM based embedded systems. CramFs is read-only, |
| 9 | limited to 256MB file systems (with 16MB files), and doesn't support |
| 10 | 16/32 bits uid/gid, hard links and timestamps. |
| 11 | |
| 12 | See <file:Documentation/filesystems/cramfs.txt> and |
| 13 | <file:fs/cramfs/README> for further information. |
| 14 | |
| 15 | To compile this as a module, choose M here: the module will be called |
| 16 | cramfs. Note that the root file system (the one containing the |
| 17 | directory /) cannot be compiled as a module. |

| 20 | in terms of performance and features. |
