NAME    [Toc]    [Back]

     mount_ados - mount an AmigaDOS file system

SYNOPSIS    [Toc]    [Back]

     mount_ados [-o options] [-u uid] [-g gid] [-m mask]  special
node

DESCRIPTION    [Toc]    [Back]

     The  mount_ados command attaches the AmigaDOS filesystem residing on the
     device special to the global filesystem namespace at the location indicated
 by node.  This command is invoked by mount(8) when using the syntax

         mount [options] -t ados special node

     The special device must correspond to a partition registered
in the
     disklabel(5).

     mount(8)  is  normally  run at boot time, but can be used by
any user to
     mount an AmigaDOS file system on any directory that they own
(provided,
     of  course,  that they have appropriate access to the device
that contains
     the file system).

     The options are as follows:

     -o options
             Use the specified mount  options,  as  described  in
mount(8).

     -u  uid   Set  the  owner of the files in the file system to
uid.  The default
 owner is the owner of the directory  on  which
the file system
 is being mounted.

     -g  gid   Set  the  group of the files in the file system to
gid.  The default
 group is the group of the directory  on  which
the file system
 is being mounted.

     -m mask
             Specify  the  maximum  file permissions for files in
the file system.
  (For example, a mask of 755 specifies that, by
default, the
             owner  should  have read, write, and execute permissions for files,
             but others should only have read and execute permissions.  See
             chmod(1)  for  more  information  about  octal  file
modes.)  Only the
             nine low-order bits of mask are used.   The  default
mask is taken
             from the directory on which the file system is being
mounted.
