mount_s5(1M)
mount_s5 --
mount an s5 filesystem
Synopsis
mount [-F s5] [generic_options] [-r] [-o specific_options]
[special | mount_point]
mount [-F s5] [generic_options] [-r] [-o specific_options]
special mount_point
Description
generic_options
are options supported by the generic mount command.
mount notifies the system that special,
an s5 block special device, is available to users
from the mount_point which must exist before mount is called;
it becomes the name of the root of the newly mounted special.
The options are:
-F s5-
Specify the s5 FSType. If -F s5
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 s5.
-r -
Mount the filesystem read-only.
-o -
Specify the s5 file-specific options in a comma-separated list.
The available options are:
rw | ro-
Read/write or read-only. Default is rw.
suid | nosuid-
Setuid is honored or ignored on execution.
Default is suid.
Note that a mount of an unprotected medium (such as a floppy disk)
introduces possible security risks.
While the use of nosuid protects against some risks, it is not
completely effective.
The best defense against such security risks is to avoid mounting
unprotected media.
remount -
Used in conjunction with rw. A filesystem
mounted read-only can be remounted read-write. Fails if the
filesystem is not currently mounted
or if the filesystem is mounted rw.
Option is in force only when specified.
