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

NAME
     mount_ados - mount an AmigaDOS file system

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

DESCRIPTION
     The mount_ados command attaches the AmigaDOS filesystem residing on the
     device special to the global filesystem namespace at the location
     indicated by node.  Both special and node are converted to absolute paths
     before use.  This command is normally executed by mount(8) at boot time,
     but can be used by any user to mount an AmigaDOS file system on any
     directory that they own (provided, of course, that they have appropriate
     access to the device that contains the file system).

     The options are as follows:

     -o options
             Use the specified mount options, as described in mount(8).

     -u 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.

     -g 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.

     -m mask
             Specify the maximum file permissions for files in the file
             system.  (For example, a mask of 755 specifies that, by default,
             the owner should have read, write, and execute permissions for
             files, but others should only have read and execute permissions.
             See chmod(1) for more information about octal file modes.)  Only
             the nine low-order bits of mask are used.  The default mask is
             taken from the directory on which the file system is being
             mounted.

HISTORY
     The mount_ados utility first appeared in NetBSD 1.0.

BUGS
     The `ados' filesystem currently supports the Amiga fast file system.

     The `ados' filesystem implementation currently is read-only.  The
     mount_ados utility silently retries the mount read-only, as if the ro
     option were specified, when it encounters the [EROFS] error.
