| 4 | help |
| 5 | The Fast File System (FFS) is the common file system used on hard |
| 6 | disks by Amiga(tm) systems since AmigaOS Version 1.3 (34.20). Say Y |
| 7 | if you want to be able to read and write files from and to an Amiga |
| 8 | FFS partition on your hard drive. Amiga floppies however cannot be |
| 9 | read with this driver due to an incompatibility of the floppy |
| 10 | controller used in an Amiga and the standard floppy controller in |
| 11 | PCs and workstations. Read <file:Documentation/filesystems/affs.txt> |
| 12 | and <file:fs/affs/Changes>. |
| 13 | |
| 14 | With this driver you can also mount disk files used by Bernd |
| 15 | Schmidt's Un*X Amiga Emulator |
| 16 | (<http://www.freiburg.linux.de/~uae/>). |
| 17 | If you want to do this, you will also need to say Y or M to "Loop |
| 18 | device support", above. |
| 19 | |
| 20 | To compile this file system support as a module, choose M here: the |
| 21 | module will be called affs. If unsure, say N. |
