| == NAME |
| |
| mkfs.bfs - make an SCO bfs filesystem |
| |
| == SYNOPSIS |
| |
| *mkfs.bfs* [options] _device_ [_block-count_] |
| |
| == DESCRIPTION |
| |
| *mkfs.bfs* creates an SCO bfs filesystem on a block device (usually a disk partition or a file accessed via the loop device). |
| |
| The _block-count_ parameter is the desired size of the filesystem, in blocks. If nothing is specified, the entire partition will be used. |
| |
| == OPTIONS |
| |
| *-N*, *--inodes* _number_:: |
| Specify the desired _number_ of inodes (at most 512). If nothing is specified, some default number in the range 48-512 is picked depending on the size of the partition. |
| |
| *-V*, *--vname* _label_:: |
| Specify the volume _label_. I have no idea if/where this is used. |
| |
| *-F*, *--fname* _name_:: |
| Specify the filesystem _name_. I have no idea if/where this is used. |
| |
| *-v*, *--verbose*:: |
| Explain what is being done. |
| |
| *-c*:: |
| This option is silently ignored. |
| |
| *-l*:: |
| This option is silently ignored. |
| |
| *-h*, *--help*:: |
| Display help text and exit. |
| |
| *-V*, *--version*:: |
| Display version information and exit. Option *-V* only works as *--version* when it is the only option. |
| |
| == EXIT STATUS |
