ISOSIZE(8) System Administration ISOSIZE(8)NAME
isosize - output the length of an iso9660 filesystem
SYNOPSIS
isosize [options] iso9660_image_file
DESCRIPTION
This command outputs the length of an iso9660 filesystem that is contained in the specified file. This file may be a normal file or a
block device (e.g. /dev/hdd or /dev/sr0). In the absence of any options (and errors), it will output the size of the iso9660 filesystem in
bytes. This can now be a large number (>> 4 GB).
OPTIONS -x, --sectors
Show the block count and block size in human-readable form. The output uses the term "sectors" for "blocks".
-d, --divisor number
Only has an effect when -x is not given. The value shown (if no errors) is the iso9660 file size in bytes divided by number. So if
number is the block size then the shown value will be the block count.
The size of the file (or block device) holding an iso9660 filesystem can be marginally larger than the actual size of the iso9660 filesys-
tem. One reason for this is that cd writers are allowed to add "run out" sectors at the end of an iso9660 image.
AVAILABILITY
The isosize command is part of the util-linux package and is available from Linux Kernel Archive <ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils
/util-linux/>.

MKFS.MINIX(8) System Administration MKFS.MINIX(8)NAME
mkfs.minix - make a Minix filesystem
SYNOPSIS
mkfs.minix [-c|-l filename] [-n namelength] [-i inodecount] [-v] device [size-in-blocks]
DESCRIPTION
mkfs.minix creates a Linux MINIX filesystem on a device (usually a disk partition).
The device is usually of the following form:
/dev/hda[1-8] (IDE disk 1)
/dev/hdb[1-8] (IDE disk 2)
/dev/sda[1-8] (SCSI disk 1)
/dev/sdb[1-8] (SCSI disk 2)
The size-in-blocks parameter is the desired size of the file system, in blocks. It is present only for backwards compatibility. If omit-
ted the size will be determined automatically. Only block counts strictly greater than 10 and strictly less than 65536 are allowed.
OPTIONS -c Check the device for bad blocks before creating the filesystem. If any are found, the count is printed.
-n namelength
Specify the maximum length of filenames. Currently, the only allowable values are 14 and 30. The default is 30. Note that kernels
older than 0.99p7 only accept namelength 14.
-i inodecount
Specify the number of inodes for the filesystem.
-l filename
Read the list of bad blocks from filename. The file has one bad-block number per line. The count of bad blocks read is printed.
-1 Make a Minix version 1 filesystem.
-2, -v Make a Minix version 2 filesystem.
-3 Make a Minix version 3 filesystem.
EXIT CODES
The exit code returned by mkfs.minix is one of the following:
0 No errors
8 Operational error
16 Usage or syntax error
SEE ALSO mkfs(8), fsck(8), reboot(8)AVAILABILITY
The mkfs.minix command is part of the util-linux package and is available from ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/util-linux/.
