NAME
mkcramfs - make a compressed ROM file system
SYNOPSIS
mkcramfs [-h] [-b blksize] [-e edition] [-i file] [-n name] dirname outfile
DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the mkcramfs command. This manual page was written for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution (but may be
used by others), because the original program does not have a manual page.
mkcramfs constructs a CramFs from the contents of dirname. The image of the resulting file system is placed in outfile.
OPTIONS
-h Give a brief help message.
-E Make all warnings errors (non-zero exit status).
-b blksize
Set the block size of the generated file system.
-e edition
Set the edition number (part of fsid).
-i file
Insert a file image into the filesystem (requires Linux >= 2.4.0).
-n name
Set the name of the CramFs filesystem.
-p Pad by 512 bytes for boot code.
-s Sort directory entries (old option, ignored).
-v Turn on verbose mode.
-z Make explicit holes (requires Linux >= 2.3.39).
AUTHOR
mkcramfs is written by Linus Torvalds and Daniel Quinlan. Manual page added by Herbert Xu.
