MOUNT_HPFS(8) BSD System Manager's Manual MOUNT_HPFS(8)NAMEmount_hpfs — mount an HPFS file system
SYNOPSISmount_hpfs [-o options] [-u uid] [-g gid] [-m mask] special node
DESCRIPTION
The mount_hpfs utility attaches the HPFS file system residing on the
device special to the global file system namespace at the location indi‐
cated by node. This command is normally executed by mount(8) at boot
time, but can be used by any user to mount an HPFS 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:
-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.
-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.
-m mask
Specify the maximum file permissions for files in the file sys‐
tem.
EXAMPLES
To mount an hpfs volume located in /dev/wd1s1:
# mount_hpfs /dev/wd1s1 /mnt
WRITING
There is limited writing ability and it is not well-tested. It is
strongly recommended to mount readonly!
