MOUNT_CD9660(8)         NetBSD System Manager's Manual         MOUNT_CD9660(8)


NAME

     mount_cd9660 - mount an ISO-9660 filesystem


SYNOPSIS

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


DESCRIPTION

     The mount_cd9660 command attaches the ISO-9660 filesystem residing on the
     device special to the global filesystem namespace at the location indi-
     cated by node.  This command is normally executed by mount(8) at boot
     time.

     The options are as follows:

     -e      Enable the use of extended attributes.

     -g      Do not strip version numbers on files and leave the case of the
             filename alone.  (By default, uppercase characters are translated
             to lowercase, and if there are files with different version num-
             bers on the disk, only the last one will be listed.)

             In either case, files may be opened without giving a version num-
             ber, in which case you get the last one, or by explicitly stating
             a version number (albeit it's quite difficult to know it, if you
             are not using the -g option), in which case you get the specified
             version.

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

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

BUGS

     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, you have to use the original name of the file as recorded on
     disk, i.e. use uppercase and append the version number to the file.

     There is no ECMA support.
