menuconfig BLK_DEV
        bool "Block devices"
        depends on BLOCK
        default y
        ---help---
          Say Y here to get to see options for various different block device
          drivers. This option alone does not add any kernel code.

          If you say N, all options in this submenu will be skipped and disabled
          only do this if you know what you are doing.
