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.
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.
The mount_filecore
utility first appeared in
NetBSD 1.4.
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.
