36.Sh NAME 37.Nm mount_msdosfs 38.Nd mount an MS-DOS file system 39.Sh SYNOPSIS 40.Nm 41.Op Fl 9ls 42.Op Fl D Ar DOS_codepage 43.Op Fl g Ar gid 44.Op Fl L Ar locale 45.Op Fl M Ar mask 46.Op Fl m Ar mask 47.Op Fl o Ar options 48.Op Fl u Ar uid 49.Op Fl W Ar table 50.Ar special node 51.Sh DESCRIPTION 52The 53.Nm 54utility attaches the MS-DOS file system residing on 55the device 56.Pa special 57to the global file system namespace at the location 58indicated by 59.Pa node . 60This command is normally executed by 61.Xr mount 8 62at boot time, but can be used by any user to mount an 63MS-DOS file system on any directory that they own (provided, 64of course, that they have appropriate access to the device that 65contains the file system). 66.Pp 67The options are as follows: 68.Bl -tag -width Ds 69.It Fl o Ar options 70Use the specified mount 71.Ar options , 72as described in 73.Xr mount 8 . 74The following MSDOS file system-specific options are available: 75.Bl -tag -width indent 76.It Cm large 77Support file systems larger than 128 gigabytes at the expense 78of 32 bytes of kernel memory for each file on disk. 79This memory will not be reclaimed until the file system has 80been unmounted. 81.It Cm longnames 82Force Windows 95 long filenames to be visible. 83.It Cm shortnames 84Force only the old MS-DOS 8.3 style filenames to be visible. 85.It Cm nowin95 86Completely ignore Windows 95 extended file information. 87.El 88.It Fl u Ar uid 89Set the owner of the files in the file system to 90.Ar uid . 91The default owner is the owner of the directory 92on which the file system is being mounted. 93.It Fl g Ar gid 94Set the group of the files in the file system to 95.Ar gid . 96The default group is the group of the directory 97on which the file system is being mounted. 98.It Fl m Ar mask 99Specify the maximum file permissions for files 100in the file system. 101(For example, a 102.Ar mask 103of 104.Li 755 105specifies that, by default, the owner should have 106read, write, and execute permissions for files, but 107others should only have read and execute permissions. 108See 109.Xr chmod 1 110for more information about octal file modes. 111Only the nine low-order bits of 112.Ar mask 113are used. 114The value of 115.Ar -M 116is used if it is supplied and 117.Ar -m 118is omitted. 119The default 120.Ar mask 121is taken from the 122directory on which the file system is being mounted. 123.It Fl M Ar mask 124Specify the maximum file permissions for directories 125in the file system. 126The value of 127.Ar -m 128is used if it is supplied and 129.Ar -M 130is omitted. 131See the previous option's description for details. 132.It Fl s 133Force behaviour to 134ignore and not generate Win'95 long filenames. 135.It Fl l 136Force listing and generation of 137Win'95 long filenames 138and separate creation/modification/access dates. 139.Pp 140If neither 141.Fl s 142nor 143.Fl l 144are given, 145.Nm 146searches the root directory of the file system to 147be mounted for any existing Win'95 long filenames. 148If no such entries are found, but short DOS filenames are found, 149.Fl s 150is the default. 151Otherwise 152.Fl l 153is assumed. 154.It Fl 9 155Ignore the special Win'95 directory entries even 156if deleting or renaming a file. 157This forces 158.Fl s . 159.\".It Fl G 160.\"This option causes the file system to be interpreted as an Atari-Gemdos 161.\"file system. 162.\"The differences to the MS-DOS file system are minimal and 163.\"limited to the boot block. 164.\"This option enforces 165.\".Fl s . 166.It Fl L Ar locale 167Specify locale name used for file name conversions 168for DOS and Win'95 names. 169By default ISO 8859-1 assumed as local character set. 170.It Fl D Ar DOS_codepage 171Specify the MS-DOS code page (aka IBM/OEM code page) name used for 172file name conversions for DOS names. 173.It Fl W Ar table 174.Bf Em 175This option is preserved for backward compatibility purpose only, 176and will be removed in the future. 177Please avoid using this option. 178.Ef 179.Pp 180Specify text file name with conversion table: 181.Pa iso22dos , iso72dos , koi2dos , koi8u2dos . 182.El 183.Sh EXAMPLES 184To mount a Russian MS-DOS file system located in 185.Pa /dev/ada1s1 : 186.Pp 187.Dl "mount_msdosfs -L ru_RU.KOI8-R -D CP866 /dev/ada1s1 /mnt" 188.Pp 189To mount a Japanese MS-DOS file system located in 190.Pa /dev/ada1s1 : 191.Pp 192.Dl "mount_msdosfs -L ja_JP.eucJP -D CP932 /dev/ada1s1 /mnt" 193.Sh SEE ALSO 194.Xr mount 2 , 195.Xr unmount 2 , 196.Xr fstab 5 , 197.Xr msdosfs 5 , 198.Xr mount 8 199.Pp 200List of Localized MS Operating Systems: 201.Pa http://www.microsoft.com/globaldev/reference/oslocversion.mspx . 202.Sh HISTORY 203The 204.Nm 205utility first appeared in 206.Fx 2.0 . 207Its predecessor, the 208.Nm mount_pcfs 209utility appeared in 210.Fx 1.0 , 211and was abandoned in favor 212of the more aptly-named 213.Nm . 214.Pp 215The character code conversion routine was added by 216.An Ryuichiro Imura Aq imura@ryu16.org 217at 2003. 218.Sh CAVEATS 219The use of the 220.Fl 9 221flag could result in damaged file systems, 222albeit the damage is in part taken care of by 223procedures similar to the ones used in Win'95. 224
