Hi us,
I think it is a good patch for Documentation/filesystem/romfs.txt.

From: Alexander Kurz <li...@kbdbabel.org>

Hello romfs group,
I have posted a patch to fix the reference to
the outdated ftp site (which still serves genromfs-0.5.1) in

Does anybody like to forward this?
Thanks, Alexander

Best Regards.
Harry Wei.
