mount(1M_S5)                    (S5)                    mount(1M_S5)


       NAME
             mount (s5) - mount an s5 file system

       SYNOPSIS
             mount [-F s5] [generic_options] [-r] [-o specific_options] {special | mount_point}
             mount [-F s5] [generic_options] [-r] [-o specific_options] special  mount_point

       DESCRIPTION
             generic_options are options supported by the generic mount
             command.

             mount notifies the system that special, an s5 block special
             device, is available to users from the mount_point which must
             exist before mount is called; it becomes the name of the root
             of the newly mounted special.

             The options are:

             -F s5     Specify an s5 FSType.

             -r        Mount the file system read-only.

             -o        Specify the s5 file-specific options in a comma-
                       separated list.  The available options are:

                       rw | ro   Read/write or read-only. Default is rw.

                       suid | nosuid
                                 Setuid is honored or ignored on execution.
                                 Default is suid.

                                 Note that a mount of an unprotected medium
                                 (such as a floppy disk) introduces
                                 possible security risks.  While the use of
                                 nosuid protects against some risks, it is
                                 not completely effective.  The best
                                 defense against such security risks is to
                                 avoid mounting unprotected media.

                       remount   Used in conjunction with rw. A file system
                                 mounted read-only can be remounted read-
                                 write. Fails if the file system is not
                                 currently mounted or if the file system is
                                 mounted rw.  Option is in force only when
                                 specified.
