There are many external CD-ROM and disk devices that connect through

your computer's parallel port. Most of them are actually IDE devices

using a parallel port IDE adapter. This option enables the PARIDE

Read <file:Documentation/admin-guide/blockdev/paride.rst> for more information.

If you have said Y to the "Parallel-port support" configuration
|
|
option, you may share a single port between your printer and other
|
|
parallel port devices. Answer Y to build PARIDE support into your
|
|
kernel, or M if you would like to build it as a loadable module. If
|
|
your parallel port support is in a loadable module, you must build
|
|
PARIDE as a module. If you built PARIDE support into your kernel,

you may still build the individual protocol modules and high-level

drivers as loadable modules. If you build this support as a module,

least one high-level driver (e.g. "Parallel port IDE disks",

"Parallel port ATAPI CD-ROMs", "Parallel port ATAPI disks" etc.) and

The User-Mode Linux port includes a driver called UBD which will let

Y here.

help
|
|
Writes to the virtual block device are not immediately written to the
|
|
host's disk; this may cause problems if, for example, the User-Mode
|
|
Linux 'Virtual Machine' uses a journalling filesystem and the host
|
|
computer crashes.
|
|
|
|
Synchronous operation (i.e. always writing data to the host's disk
|
|
immediately) is configurable on a per-UBD basis by using a special
|
|
kernel command line option. Alternatively, you can say Y here to
|
|
turn on synchronous operation by default for all block devices.
|
|
|
|
If you're running a journalling file system (like reiserfs, for
|
|
example) in your virtual machine, you will want to say Y here. If
|
|
you care for the safety of the data in your virtual machine, Y is a
|
|
wise choice too. In all other cases (for example, if you're just
|

playing around with User-Mode Linux) you can choose N.

help
|

Saying Y here will allow you to use a regular file as a block
|
|
device; you can then create a file system on that block device and
|
|
mount it just as you would mount other block devices such as hard
|
|
drive partitions, CD-ROM drives or floppy drives. The loop devices
|
|
are block special device files with major number 7 and typically
|
|
called /dev/loop0, /dev/loop1 etc.
|
|
|
|
This is useful if you want to check an ISO 9660 file system before
|
|
burning the CD, or if you want to use floppy images without first
|
|
writing them to floppy. Furthermore, some Linux distributions avoid
|
|
the need for a dedicated Linux partition by keeping their complete
|
|
root file system inside a DOS FAT file using this loop device
|
|
driver.
|
|
|
|
To use the loop device, you need the losetup utility, found in the
|
|
util-linux package, see
|
|
<https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/util-linux/>.
|
|
|
|
The loop device driver can also be used to "hide" a file system in
|
|
a disk partition, floppy, or regular file, either using encryption
|
|
(scrambling the data) or steganography (hiding the data in the low
|
|
bits of, say, a sound file). This is also safe if the file resides
|
|
on a remote file server.
|
|
|
|
Note that this loop device has nothing to do with the loopback
|
|
device used for network connections from the machine to itself.

To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the

This default value can be overwritten on the kernel command

|
|

|
The historic default is 8. If a late 2011 version of losetup(8)
|
|
is used, it can be set to 0, since needed loop devices can be

dynamically allocated with the /dev/loop-control interface.

help
|

Saying Y here will allow your computer to be a client for network
|
|
block devices, i.e. it will be able to use block devices exported by
|
|
servers (mount file systems on them etc.). Communication between
|
|
client and server works over TCP/IP networking, but to the client
|
|
program this is hidden: it looks like a regular local file access to
|
|
a block device special file such as /dev/nd0.
|
|
|
|
Network block devices also allows you to run a block-device in
|
|
userland (making server and client physically the same computer,
|
|
communicating using the loopback network device).
|
|
|
|
Read <file:Documentation/admin-guide/blockdev/nbd.rst> for more information,
|
|
especially about where to find the server code, which runs in user
|
|
space and does not need special kernel support.

Note that this has nothing to do with the network file systems NFS
|
|
or Coda; you can say N here even if you intend to use NFS or Coda.

a block device, so that you can make file systems on it, read and
|
|
write to it and do all the other things that you can do with normal
|
|
block devices (such as hard drives). It is usually used to load and
|
|
store a copy of a minimal root file system off of a floppy into RAM
|

during the initial install of Linux.

Note that the kernel command line option "ramdisk=XX" is now obsolete.
