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.

help

This permits ROMFS to use block devices buffered through the page
|
|
|
|
|
cache as the medium from which to retrieve data. It does not allow
|
|
|
|
|
direct mapping of the medium.

This permits ROMFS to use MTD based devices directly, without the
|
|
|
|
|
intercession of the block layer (which may have been disabled). It
|
|
|
|
|
also allows direct mapping of MTD devices through romfs files under
|
|
|
|
|
NOMMU conditions if the underlying device is directly addressable by
|
|
|
|
|
the CPU.
