MOUNT_HFS(8) |
NAME
mount_hfs — mount an Apple HFS+ File System
SYNOPSIS
|
mount_hfs |
[-o options] special node |
DESCRIPTION
The
mount_hfs command attaches the Apple HFS+ 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.
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 mount(8) man page for possible options and their meanings.
NOTES
Apple disk images (
.dmg files) and hybrid CD-ROMs contain multiple partitions with an HFS+ file system on one of them. Use
apmlabel(8) to enter it into the disklabel and mount the resulting partition.
HISTORY
The mount_hfs utility first appeared in NetBSD 5.0.
AUTHORS
mount_hfs was developed by Yevgeny Binder <yevbee@comcast.net> during the 2005 Google Summer of Code. It was improved and imported into NetBSD by Dieter Baron <dillo@NetBSD.org>.
BUGS
HFS+ support is still experimental. Currently, no write support is present. Also, Unicode decomposition is not performed on file names prior to lookup.
