If you want to use one of the FAT-based file systems (the MS-DOS and
|
|
VFAT (Windows 95) file systems), then you must say Y or M here
|
|
to include FAT support. You will then be able to mount partitions or
|
|
diskettes with FAT-based file systems and transparently access the
|
|
files on them, i.e. MSDOS files will look and behave just like all
|
|
other Unix files.
|
|
|
|
This FAT support is not a file system in itself, it only provides
|
|
the foundation for the other file systems. You will have to say Y or
|
|
M to at least one of "MSDOS fs support" or "VFAT fs support" in
|
|
order to make use of it.
|
|
|
|
Another way to read and write MSDOS floppies and hard drive
|
|
partitions from within Linux (but not transparently) is with the
|
|
mtools ("man mtools") program suite. You don't need to say Y here in
|
|
order to do that.
|
|
|
|
If you need to move large files on floppies between a DOS and a
|
|
Linux box, say Y here, mount the floppy under Linux with an MSDOS
|
|
file system and use GNU tar's M option. GNU tar is a program
|
|
available for Unix and DOS ("man tar" or "info tar").
|
|
|
|
The FAT support will enlarge your kernel by about 37 KB. If unsure,
|
|
say Y.
|
|
|
|
To compile this as a module, choose M here: the module will be called
|
|
fat. Note that if you compile the FAT support as a module, you
|
|
cannot compile any of the FAT-based file systems into the kernel
|
|
-- they will have to be modules as well.

This allows you to mount MSDOS partitions of your hard drive (unless
|
|
they are compressed; to access compressed MSDOS partitions under
|
|
Linux, you can either use the DOS emulator DOSEMU, described in the
|
|
DOSEMU-HOWTO, available from
|
|
<http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>, or try dmsdosfs in
|
|
<ftp://ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/system/filesystems/dosfs/>. If you
|
|
intend to use dosemu with a non-compressed MSDOS partition, say Y
|
|
here) and MSDOS floppies. This means that file access becomes
|
|
transparent, i.e. the MSDOS files look and behave just like all
|
|
other Unix files.
|
|
|
|
If you have Windows 95 or Windows NT installed on your MSDOS
|
|
partitions, you should use the VFAT file system (say Y to "VFAT fs
|
|
support" below), or you will not be able to see the long filenames
|
|
generated by Windows 95 / Windows NT.
|
|
|
|
This option will enlarge your kernel by about 7 KB. If unsure,
|
|
answer Y. This will only work if you said Y to "DOS FAT fs support"
|
|
as well. To compile this as a module, choose M here: the module will
|
|
be called msdos.

|

This option provides support for normal Windows file systems with
|
|
long filenames. That includes non-compressed FAT-based file systems
|
|
used by Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows NT 4.0, and the Unix
|
|
programs from the mtools package.
|
|
|
|
The VFAT support enlarges your kernel by about 10 KB and it only
|
|
works if you said Y to the "DOS FAT fs support" above. Please read
|
|
the file <file:Documentation/filesystems/vfat.txt> for details. If
|
|
unsure, say Y.
|
|
|
|
To compile this as a module, choose M here: the module will be called
|
|
vfat.

This option should be set to the codepage of your FAT filesystems.

Set this to the default input/output character set you'd
|
|
like FAT to use. It should probably match the character set
|
|
that most of your FAT filesystems use, and can be overridden
|
|
with the "iocharset" mount option for FAT filesystems.
|
|
Note that "utf8" is not recommended for FAT filesystems.
|
|
If unsure, you shouldn't set "utf8" here - select the next option
|
|
instead if you would like to use UTF-8 encoded file names by default.
|
|
See <file:Documentation/filesystems/vfat.txt> for more information.

Set this if you would like to have "utf8" mount option set

by default when mounting FAT filesystems.
|

Even if you say Y here can always disable UTF-8 for

particular mount by adding "utf8=0" to mount options.

Say Y if you use UTF-8 encoding for file names, N otherwise.
