NAME

dossrv, 9660srv − DOS/Windows and ISO 9660 file systems

SYNOPSIS

dossrv [−v] [−s] [−F] [−c] [ -f devicefile ] [ -m mountpoint ] [ -S sectors/track ]

9660srv [−rab] cdfile dir

DESCRIPTION

Dossrv makes the contents of a DOS/Windows file system visible in the Inferno name space.  The options are:

-v print a debugging trace, including 9P messages, on standard error

-F display FAT information

-c display cluster data and I/O activity

-s standard ouput is connected to a client; serve that

-f devicefile
the DOS/Windows file system image; defaults to /dev/hd0disk. 

-m mountpoint
The directory where the contents of the file system should appear; defaults to /n/dos. 

-S sectors/track
The number of sectors per track. The default is 9.

9660srv performs a similar function for files (notably CDROMs) in ISO9660 format, including the Rock Ridge extension and its Plan 9 variant.  It makes the contents of cdfile visible in the name space at dir. The options are those of bind(1): −r, to replace the contents of dir; −a, to make a union directory with the CD contents after the contents of dir; −b, to make a union directory with the CD contents before the contents of dir.
