mount_filecore —
mount a FILECORE file

SYNOPSIS

[-afnR]
[-g gid]
[-o
options]
[-u uid]
special node |
ORIGIN
The
NetBSD FILECORE filesystem is a read only
implementation of the filecore file system found in Acorn Computers RISC OS
operating system. This operating system is the ROM based operating system
found on their ARM 6, ARM7 and StrongARM 110 based RiscPC machines that are
supported by the arm32 port. Under RISC OS, filecore will have multiple
instantiations for file systems on different block devices such as floppies,
IDE discs, SCSI discs etc. and these frequently are considered to be different
filesystems e.g. ADFS, IDEFS, SCSIFS etc.
DESCRIPTION
The
mount_filecore command attaches the FILECORE filesystem
residing on the device
special to the global filesystem
namespace at the location indicated by
node. Both
special and
node are converted to
absolute paths before use. This command is normally executed by
mount(8) at boot time, but can be
used by any user to mount a FILECORE file system on any directory that they
own (provided, of course, that they have appropriate access to the device that
contains the file system).
The options are as follows:
-
-
- -a
- Give all files world access.
-
-
- -f
- Append the filetype to each filename. This option currently
has no effect.
-
-
- -g
gid
- Set the group of the files in the file system to
gid. The default group is the group of the directory
on which the file system is being mounted.
-
-
- -n
- Give all files owner access.
-
-
- -o
options
- Use the specified mount options, as
described in mount(8).
-
-
- -R
- Give all files owner read access.
-
-
- -u
uid
- Set the owner of the files in the file system to
uid. The default owner is the owner of the directory
on which the file system is being mounted.

HISTORY
The
mount_filecore utility first appeared in
NetBSD 1.4.
CAVEATS
The ‘filecore’ filesystem currently supports the Acorn filecore file
system found on Acorn Computers RiscPC desktop machines with versions of RISC
OS up to 3.70.
