SACFS(4)

NAME

sacfs  − compressed file system

SYNOPSIS

­disk/sacfs [ ­-i ­infd ­outfd ] [ ­-s ] [ ­-m ­mountpoint ] ­file

DESCRIPTION

Sacfs interprets the compressed, block based file system created by mksacfs(8) and stored in ­file so that it can be mounted into a Plan 9 file system.  ­Sacfs is typically used to create a stand alone file system from a small persistent storage device, such as a flash rom.  It does not authenticate its clients and assumes each group has a single member with the same name. 

The ­-s flag causes ­sacfs to post its channel on #s/sacfs.  The ­-i flag causes ­sacfs to use file descriptors ­infd and ­outfd for its communication channel.  If neither ­-s nor ­-i are given, ­sacfs mounts itself on mountpoint (default /n/c:).
