[expert] Reading Amiga disks

[Serge Pineault]

Hi:

Some time ago, I used to have an Amiga.  I still have some disks with
Amiga-written data on them, which I would not mind recovering.  
The Amiga Fast File System (affs) is one of the filesystems
included with Linux, but it is not currently enabled on
my system.  What is the simplest way of adding it?  Do I need
to recompile the whole kernel (i.e. go through the menuconfig
steps etc...) or can I just recompile that particular piece
in its own directory?

Thanks,

Serge Pineault
