MOUNT_HPFS(8) System Manager's Manual MOUNT_HPFS(8)

mount_hpfsmount an HPFS file system

mount_hpfs [-o options] [-u uid] [-g gid] [-m mask] special node

The mount_hpfs utility attaches the HPFS file system residing on the device special to the global file system namespace at the location indicated by node. This command is normally executed by mount(8) at boot time, but can be used by any user to mount an HPFS file system on any directory that they own (provided, of course, that they have appropriate access to the device that contains the file system). HPFS filesystems can only be mounted read only.

The options are as follows:

uid
Set the owner of the files in the file system to uid. The default owner is the owner of the directory on which the file system is being mounted.
gid
Set the group of the files in the file system to gid. The default group is the group of the directory on which the file system is being mounted.
mask
Specify the maximum file permissions for files in the file system.

To mount an hpfs volume located in /dev/ad1s1:

# mount_hpfs /dev/ad1s1 /mnt

mount(2), unmount(2), fstab(5), mount(8)

The mount_hpfs utility first appeared in FreeBSD 3.0.

HPFS kernel implementation, mount_hpfs and manual were written by Semen Ustimenko <semenu@FreeBSD.org>.
