mkfs.bfs

MKFS.BFS(8)						Linux System Administrator's Manual					       MKFS.BFS(8)

NAME

       mkfs.bfs - make an SCO bfs filesystem

SYNOPSIS

       mkfs.bfs [-N nr-of-inodes] [-V volume-name] [-F fsname] device [size-in-blocks]

DESCRIPTION

       mkfs.bfs creates an SCO bfs file-system on a block device (usually a disk partition or a file accessed via the loop device).

       The  size-in-blocks  parameter  is  the	desired size of the file system, in blocks.  If nothing is specified, the entire partition will be
       used.

OPTIONS

       -N     Specify the desired number of inodes (at most 512).  If nothing is specified some default number	in  the  range	48-512	is  picked
	      depending on the size of the partition.

       -V volume-label
	      Specify the volume label. I have no idea if/where this is used.

       -F fsname
	      Specify the fsname. I have no idea if/where this is used.

       -v     Be verbose.

EXIT CODES

       The exit code returned by mkfs.bfs is 0 when all went well, and 1 when something went wrong.

SEE ALSO

       mkfs(8).

AVAILABILITY

       The mkfs.bfs command is part of the util-linux package and is available from ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/util-linux/.
