+ help
+ Ext4dev is a predecessor filesystem of the next generation
+ extended fs ext4, based on ext3 filesystem code. It will be
+ renamed ext4 fs later, once ext4dev is mature and stabilized.
+
+ Unlike the change from ext2 filesystem to ext3 filesystem,
+ the on-disk format of ext4dev is not the same as ext3 any more:
+ it is based on extent maps and it supports 48-bit physical block
+ numbers. These combined on-disk format changes will allow
+ ext4dev/ext4 to handle more than 16 TB filesystem volumes --
+ a hard limit that ext3 cannot overcome without changing the
+ on-disk format.
+
+ Other than extent maps and 48-bit block numbers, ext4dev also is
+ likely to have other new features such as persistent preallocation,
+ high resolution time stamps, and larger file support etc. These
+ features will be added to ext4dev gradually.
+
+ To compile this file system support as a module, choose M here. The
+ module will be called ext4dev. Be aware, however, that the filesystem
+ of your root partition (the one containing the directory /) cannot
+ be compiled as a module, and so this could be dangerous.
+
+ If unsure, say N.
