NAME

mount (cdfs) − mount cdfs file systems

SYNOPSIS

mount [−F cdfs] [generic_options] [−r] [−o specific_options] { special|mount_point }
mount [−F cdfs] [generic_options] [−r] [−o specific_options] special mount_point

DESCRIPTION

generic_options are options supported by the generic mount command.  mount attaches a cdfs file system, referenced by special, to the file system hierarchy at the pathname location mount_point, which must already exist. If mount_point has any contents prior to the mount operation, these remain hidden until the file system is once again unmounted. 

The options are:

−F cdfs
Specifies the cdfs-FSType. 

−r Mount the file system read-only. By definition an ISO-9660 or High Sierra CDROM disc is read-only. 

−o Specify the cdfs file system specific options in a comma-separated list.  If invalid options are specified, a warning message is printed and the invalid options are ignored.  The following options are available:

ro read-only.  Default is ro. 

nosuid By default the file system is mounted with setuid execution allowed.  Specifying nosuid overrides the default and causes the file system to be mounted with setuid execution disallowed. 

NOTES

The Motorola 88K Unix SVR4 system cdfs file system does not allow multi-volume ISO-9660 CDROM volume sets to be mounted as a single file system. Each CDROM disc must be separately mounted.
