PKTSETUP(8) System Management Commands PKTSETUP(8)NAME
pktsetup - set up and tear down packet device associations
SYNOPSIS
pktsetup packet_device block_device
pktsetup -d packet_device
pktsetup -s
DESCRIPTION
Pktsetup is used to associate packet devices with CD or DVD block devices, so that the packet device can then be mounted and potentially
used as a read/write filesystem. This requires kernel support for the packet device, and the UDF filesystem.
See: http://packet-cd.sourceforge.net/ <>
EXIT STATUS
Pktsetup returns 0 on success, nonzero on failure.
OPTIONS -d packet-device
Delete the association between the specified packet-device and its block device.
-s Show device mappings.
EXAMPLE
The following commands provide an example of using the packet device.
cdrwtool -d /dev/sr0 -q
pktsetup /dev/pktcdvd0 /dev/sr0
mount -t udf /dev/pktcdvd0 /mnt
...
umount /dev/pktcdvd0
pktsetup -d /dev/pktcdvd0
FILES
/dev/pktcdvd0,/dev/pktcdvd1,... CD/DVD packet devices (block major=97)

dev(7FS) File Systems dev(7FS)NAME
dev - Device name file system
DESCRIPTION
The dev filesystem manages the name spaces of devices under the Solaris operating environment. The global zone's instance of the dev
filesystem is mounted during boot on /dev.
A subdirectory under /dev may have unique operational semantics. Most of the common device names under /dev are created automatically by
devfsadm(1M). Others, such as /dev/pts, are dynamic and reflect the operational state of the system. You can manually generate device
names for newly attached hardware by invoking devfsadm(1M) or implicitly, by indirectly causing a lookup or readdir operation in the
filesystem to occur. For example, you can discover a disk that was attached when the system was powered down (and generate a name for that
device) by invoking format(1M)).
FILES
/dev Mount point for the /dev filesystem in the global zone.
SEE ALSO devfsadm(1M), format(1M), devfs(7FS)NOTES
The global /dev instance cannot be unmounted.
