mount_bfs(1M)

mount_bfs -- mount bfs filesystems

Synopsis

mount [-F bfs] [generic_options] [-r] [-o specific_options]
[special | mount_point]
mount [-F bfs] [generic_options] [-r] [-o specific_options]
special mount_point

Description

generic_options are options supported by the generic mount command.

mount attaches a bfs filesystem, referenced by special, to the filesystem hierarchy at the pathname location mount_point, which must already exist. If mount_point has any contents prior to the mount operation, these are hidden until the filesystem is unmounted.

The options are:

-F bfs

Specify the bfs FSType. If -F bfs is not specified heuristics similiar to those used by fstyp(1M) are used to determine the file system type.

NOTE: This command executes faster if it is not required to autodetect file system types. If possible, specify the -F bfs.

-r

Mount the filesystem read-only

-o

Specify the options specific to the bfs filesystem. Multiple filesystem-specific options may be listed in any order, but must be separated by commas. Available options are:

rw | ro: Read/write or read-only. Default is read/write.

Only a privileged user can mount filesystems.
