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 /usr/share/doc/udftools/README.Debian for more information.	<>

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 the current device mapping, one device per line, in the format
	       name : pktdevid -> blkdevid
	      (e.g. "0 : 253:0 -> 22:0")

EXAMPLE
       The following commands provide an example of using the packet device.

	      cdrwtool -d /dev/sr0 -q
	      pktsetup 0 /dev/sr0

	      mount -t udf /dev/pktcdvd0 /mnt
	       ...
	      umount /dev/pktcdvd0
	      pktsetup -d 0

FILES
       /dev/pktcdvd0,/dev/pktcdvd1,...	CD/DVD packet devices
