DUMPLFS(8) BSD System Manager's Manual DUMPLFS(8)NAME
dumplfs -- dump file system information
SYNOPSIS
dumplfs [-adiS] [-b blkno] [-I blkno] [-s segno] filesys | device
DESCRIPTION
dumplfs prints out the file system layout information for the LFS file system or special device specified. The listing is very long and
detailed. This command is useful mostly for finding out certain file system information such as the file system block size.
The following flags are interpreted by dumplfs.
-a Dump the contents of all superblocks, not just the first. Superblocks appear in the dumplfs output with the segment containing them.
-b Use the block specified immediately after the flag as the super block for the filesystem.
-d Check partial segment data checksums and report mismatches. This makes dumplfs operate much more slowly.
-I Use the block specified immediately after the flag as the inode block containing the index file inode.
-i Dump information about the inode free list.
-S Dump information about the segment table.
-s Add the segment number immediately following the flag to a list of segments to dump. This flag may be specified more than once to
dump more than one segment. The default is to dump all segments.

The dumplfs command appeared in 4.4BSD.

dumpfs -- dump UFS file system information
SYNOPSIS
dumpfs [-f] [-l] [-m] filesys | device
DESCRIPTION
The dumpfs utility prints out the UFS super block and cylinder group information for the file system or special device specified, unless the
-f, -l or -m flag is specified. The listing is very long and detailed. This command is useful mostly for finding out certain file system
information such as the file system block size and minimum free space percentage.
If -f is specified, a sorted list of all free fragments and free fragment ranges, as represented in cylinder group block free lists, is
printed. If the flag is specified twice, contiguous free fragments are not collapsed into ranges and instead printed in a simple list.
Fragment numbers may be converted to raw byte offsets by multiplying by the fragment size, which may be useful when recovering deleted data.
If -l is specified, the pathname to the file system's container derived from its unique identifier is printed.
If -m is specified, a newfs(8) command is printed that can be used to generate a new file system with equivalent settings. Please note that
newfs(8) options -E, -R, -S, and -T are not handled and -p is not useful in this case so is omitted. Newfs(8) options -n and -r are neither
checked for nor output but should be. The -r flag is needed if the filesystem uses gjournal(8).

The dumpfs utility appeared in 4.2BSD.

Hi,
do you know, is there any thing like Linux From Scratch, but for a BSD operating system?
A tutorial or guide to learn (and build) the system inside out? Would be pretty cool IMO. :D
