MOUNT_FFS(8) | System Manager's Manual | MOUNT_FFS(8) |
mount_ffs
,
mount_ufs
— mount a Berkeley
Fast File System
mount_ffs |
[-o options]
special node |
The mount_ffs
command attaches the
Berkeley Fast File System on the special device on to
the file system tree at point node. Both
special and node are converted
to absolute paths before use.
The mount_ufs
form of the command is meant
for backward compatibility only. Fast File Systems should no longer be
listed as type “ufs” in
fstab(5) and instead should be
listed as type “ffs”.
This command is normally executed by mount(8) at boot time. The options are as follows:
mount(2), unmount(2), fstab(5), mount(8)

A mount_ffs
command appeared in
NetBSD 1.1.
It is possible for a corrupted file system to cause a crash.
