.SH Description
|
|
.PP
|
|
The \fR\&\f(CWmmount\fR command is used to mount an MS-DOS disk. It is only
|
|
available on Linux, as it is only useful if the OS kernel allows
|
|
configuration of the disk geometry. Its syntax is:
|
|
.PP
|
|
\&\fR\&\f(CWmmount\fR \fImsdosdrive\fR [\fImountargs\fR]
|
|
.PP
|
|
\&\fR\&\f(CWMmount\fR
|
|
reads the boot sector of an MS-DOS disk, configures the drive geometry,
|
|
and finally mounts it passing
|
|
\&\fR\&\f(CWmountargs\fR to \fR\&\f(CWmount. \fR
|
|
If no mount arguments are specified, the name of the device is
|
|
used. If the disk is write protected, it is automatically mounted read
|
|
only.

.SH Viewing\ the\ texi\ doc
|
|
This manpage has been automatically generated from mtools's texinfo
|
|
documentation. However, this process is only approximative, and some
|
|
items, such as crossreferences, footnotes and indices are lost in this
|
|
translation process. Indeed, these items have no appropriate
|
|
representation in the manpage format. Moreover, not all information has
|
|
been translated into the manpage version. Thus I strongly advise you to
|
|
use the original texinfo doc. See the end of this manpage for
|
|
instructions how to view the texinfo doc.

The texinfo doc looks most pretty when printed or as html. Indeed, in
|
|
the info version certain examples are difficult to read due to the
|
|
quoting conventions used in info.
