mount_ffs
[-o options]
special node
DESCRIPTION
The
mount_ffs
command attaches the Berkeley Fast File System on the
special
device on to the file system tree at point
node.
Both
special
and
node
are converted to absolute paths before use.
The
mount_ufs
form of the command is meant for backward compatibility only.
Fast File Systems should no longer be listed as type
``ufs''
in
fstab(5)
and instead should be listed as type
``ffs''.
This command is normally executed by
mount(8)
at boot time.
The options are as follows:
- -o
-
Options are specified with a
-o
flag followed by a comma separated string of options.
See the

man page for possible options and their meanings.
