NAME    [Toc]    [Back]

     mount_cd9660 - mount an ISO-9660 filesystem

SYNOPSIS    [Toc]    [Back]

     mount_cd9660 [-egjR] [-o options] special node

DESCRIPTION    [Toc]    [Back]

     The mount_cd9660 command attaches  the  ISO-9660  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 cd9660 special node

     The options are as follows:

     -e      Enable the use of extended attributes.

     -g      Do not strip version numbers on files.  (By default,
if there are
             files with different version numbers  on  the  disk,
only the last
             one  will  be listed.)  In either case, files may be
opened without
             explicitly stating a version number.

     -j      Do not use any Joliet  extensions  included  in  the
filesystem.

     -o options
             Options  are  specified with a -o flag followed by a
comma separated
 string of options.  See the mount(8) man page for
possible options
 and their meanings.

     -R       Do not use any Rockridge extensions included in the
filesystem.

HISTORY    [Toc]    [Back]

     The mount_cd9660 utility first appeared in 4.4BSD.

BUGS    [Toc]    [Back]

     The cd9660 filesystem does not support  the  original  "High
Sierra"
     ("CDROM001") format.

     POSIX device node mapping is currently not supported.

     Version numbers are not stripped if Rockridge extensions are
in use.  In
     this case, accessing files that don't have  Rockridge  names
without version
 numbers gets the one with the lowest version number and
not the one
     with the highest.

     There is no ECMA support.
