- Minix is a simple operating system used in many classes about OS's.
- The minix file system (method to organize files on a hard disk

- but has been superseded by the second extended file system ext2fs.
- You don't want to use the minix file system on your hard disk
- because of certain built-in restrictions, but it is sometimes found
- on older Linux floppy disks. This option will enlarge your kernel
- by about 28 KB. If unsure, say N.

- If you want your Linux box to act as an NFS *server*, so that other
- computers on your local network which support NFS can access certain
- directories on your box transparently, you have two options: you can
- use the self-contained user space program nfsd, in which case you
- should say N here, or you can say Y and use the kernel based NFS
- server. The advantage of the kernel based solution is that it is
- faster.
+ Choose Y here if you want to allow other computers to access
+ files residing on this system using Sun's Network File System
+ protocol. To compile the NFS server support as a module,
+ choose M here: the module will be called nfsd.
- In either case, you will need support software; the respective
- locations are given in the file <file:Documentation/Changes> in the
- NFS section.
+ You may choose to use a user-space NFS server instead, in which
+ case you can choose N here.
- If you say Y here, you will get support for version 2 of the NFS
- protocol (NFSv2). If you also want NFSv3, say Y to the next question
- as well.
+ To export local file systems using NFS, you also need to install
+ user space programs which can be found in the Linux nfs-utils
+ package, available from http://linux-nfs.org/. More detail about
+ the Linux NFS server implementation is available via the
+ exports(5) man page.
- Please read the NFS-HOWTO, available from
- <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>.
+ Below you can choose which versions of the NFS protocol are
+ available to clients mounting the NFS server on this system.
