NAME
mount_ffs, mount_ufs - mount a Berkeley Fast File System
SYNOPSIS
mount_ffs [-o options] special node
DESCRIPTION
The mount_ffs command attaches the Berkeley Fast File System on the special device on to the file system tree at point node. The mount_ufs form of the command is meant for backward compatibility only. Fast File Systems should no longer be listed as type ``ufs'' in fstab(5) and instead should be listed as type ``ffs''. 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 sepa- rated string of options. See the mount(8) man page for possible options and their meanings.
