MOUNT_PTYFS(8)						    BSD System Manager's Manual 					    MOUNT_PTYFS(8)

NAME
mount_ptyfs -- mount the /dev/pts file system SYNOPSIS
mount_ptyfs [-g group|gid] [-m mode] [-o options] ptyfs mount_point DESCRIPTION
The mount_ptyfs command attaches an instance of the pseudo-terminal device filesystem to the global filesystem namespace. The conventional mount point is /dev/pts. The directory specified by mount_point is converted to an absolute path before use. This command is normally exe- cuted by mount(8) at boot time. The filesystem contains pseudo-terminal slave device nodes which are allocated dynamically via ptm(4), or they are already open via tradi- tional BSD style ptys. The options are as follows: -g group|gid Specify the group ownership of the slave pseudo-tty. -m mode Specify the default mode of the slave pseudo-tty. -o Options are specified with a -o flag followed by a comma separated string of options. mount_ptyfs specific options are group which corresponds to -g, and mode which corresponds to -m. See the mount(8) man page for pos- sible options and their meanings. FILES
n The nth pseudo-terminal device in use. SEE ALSO
mount(2), unmount(2), ptm(4), fstab(5), mount(8) HISTORY
The mount_ptyfs utility first appeared in NetBSD 3.0. BUGS
When multiple instances are mounted, they all display the union of the ptys used in each instance, not just the ones used in the particular instance. BSD

NAME
mount_apfs -- mount an APFS volume SYNOPSIS
mount_apfs [-o options] [-u user] [-g group] special directory mount_apfs [-o options] -s snapshot pathname directory DESCRIPTION
The mount_apfs command attaches the APFS volume indicated by the device special to the global file system namespace at the location indicated by directory. This command is normally executed by diskarbitrationd(8) or mount(8) at boot time. The special parameter should be the path to an APFS pseudo disk device node, such as /dev/disk0s2s1 (which is a volume inside the container /dev/disk0s2), which can also be specified as simply disk0s2s1. The options are as follows: -o options Options passed to mount(2) are specified with the -o option followed by a comma separated string of options. See the mount(8) man page for possible options and their meanings. -u user Set the owner of the files in the file system to user. The default owner is the owner of the directory on which the file system is being mounted. The user may be a user-name, or a numeric value. -g group Set the group of the files in the file system to group. The default group is the group of the directory on which the file system is being mounted. The group may be a group-name, or a numeric value. -s snapshot The name of the snapshot to mount. In this usage pathname is the mounted root directory of the base volume containing the snapshot. DIAGNOSTICS
The mount_apfs utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error occurs. SEE ALSO
