!!Description |

The mmount command is used to mount an MS-DOS disk. |
| |
|
24 |
It is only available on Linux, as it is only useful if the |
| |
|
25 |
OS kernel allows to configure the disk geometry. Its syntax |
| |
|
26 |
is: |
| |
|
27 |
|
| |
|
28 |
|
| |
|
29 |
mmount ''msdosdrive'' |
| |
|
30 |
[[''mountargs''] |
| |
|
31 |
|
| |
|
32 |
|
| |
|
33 |
Mmount reads the boot sector of an MS-DOS disk, |
| |
|
34 |
configures the drive geometry, and finally mounts it passing |
| |
|
35 |
mountargs to mount. If no mount arguments |
| |
|
36 |
are specified, the name of the device is used. If the disk |
| |
|
37 |
is write protected, it is automatically mounted read |
| |
|
38 |
only. |

This manpage has been automatically generated from mtools's |
| |
|
47 |
texinfo documentation. However, this process is only |
| |
|
48 |
approximative, and some items, such as crossreferences, |
| |
|
49 |
footnotes and indices are lost in this translation process. |
| |
|
50 |
Indeed, these items have no appropriate representation in |
| |
|
51 |
the manpage format. Moreover, not all information has been |
| |
|
52 |
translated into the manpage version. Thus I strongly advise |
| |
|
53 |
you to use the original texinfo doc. See the end of this |
| |
|
54 |
manpage for instructions how to view the texinfo |
| |
|
55 |
doc. |

To generate a printable copy from the texinfo doc, run the |
| |
|
62 |
following commands: |
| |
|
63 |
|
| |
|
64 |
|
| |
|
65 |
__ ./configure; make dvi; dvips mtools.dvi |
| |

To generate a html copy, run: |
| |
|
73 |
|
| |
|
74 |
|
| |
|
75 |
__ ./configure; make html |
| |
|

__A premade html can be found at: `http://mtools.linux.lu' and also at: `http://www.tux.org/pub/knaff/mtools' |

To generate an info copy (browsable using emacs' info mode), |
| |
|
83 |
run: |
| |
|
84 |
|
| |
|
85 |
|
| |
|
86 |
__ ./configure; make info |
| |
|

The texinfo doc looks most pretty when printed or as html. |
| |
|
91 |
Indeed, in the info version certain examples are difficult |
| |
|
92 |
to read due to the quoting conventions used in |
| |
|
93 |
info. |
