Hi there,
I never touch a AIX because i'm used to work on FreeBSD.
I'll have to copy some file from a floppy to an AIX.
Just to be sure is the mount command the same ?
I mean a simple
mount /dev/fd0 /floppy should work ?
Thanks :) (1 Reply)

devfs
DEVFS(5) BSD File Formats Manual DEVFS(5)NAME
devfs -- device file system
SYNOPSIS
devfs /dev devfs rw 0 0
DESCRIPTION
The device file system, or devfs, provides access to kernel's device namespace in the global file system namespace. The conventional mount
point is /dev.
The file system includes several directories, links, symbolic links and devices, some of which can also be written. In a chroot'ed environ-
ment, devfs can be used to create a new /dev mount point.
The mknod(8) tool can be used to recover deleted device entries under devfs.
The fdescfs(5) filesystem is an alternate means for populating /dev/fd. The character devices that both devfs and fdescfs(5) present in
/dev/fd correspond to the open file descriptors of the process accessing the directory. devfs only creates files for the standard file
descriptors 0, 1 and 2. fdescfs(5) creates files for all open descriptors.
The options are as follows:
-o options
Use the specified mount options, as described in mount(8). The following devfs file system-specific options are available:
ruleset=ruleset
Set ruleset number ruleset as the current ruleset for the mount-point and apply all its rules. If the ruleset number ruleset
does not exist, an empty ruleset with the number ruleset is created. See devfs(8) for more information on working with devfs
rulesets.
FILES
/dev The normal devfs mount point.
EXAMPLES
To mount a devfs volume located on /mychroot/dev:
mount -t devfs devfs /mychroot/dev
SEE ALSO fdescfs(5), devfs(8), mount(8)HISTORY
The devfs file system first appeared in FreeBSD 2.0. It became the preferred method for accessing devices in FreeBSD 5.0 and the only method
in FreeBSD 6.0. The devfs manual page first appeared in FreeBSD 2.2.
