+ help
+ Saying Y here includes support for CramFs (Compressed ROM File
+ System). CramFs is designed to be a simple, small, and compressed
+ file system for ROM based embedded systems. CramFs is read-only,
+ limited to 256MB file systems (with 16MB files), and doesn't support
+ 16/32 bits uid/gid, hard links and timestamps.
+
+ See <file:Documentation/filesystems/cramfs.txt> and
+ <file:fs/cramfs/README> for further information.
+
+ To compile this as a module, choose M here: the module will be called
+ cramfs. Note that the root file system (the one containing the
+ directory /) cannot be compiled as a module.
+
+ This filesystem is obsoleted by SquashFS, which is much better
+ in terms of performance and features.
+
+ If unsure, say N.
