.SH "DESCRIPTION"
|
|
.sp
|
|
\fBmkfs.bfs\fP creates an SCO bfs filesystem on a block device (usually a disk partition or a file accessed via the loop device).
|
|
.sp
|
|
The \fIblock\-count\fP parameter is the desired size of the filesystem, in blocks. If nothing is specified, the entire partition will be used.

\fB\-N\fP, \fB\-\-inodes\fP \fInumber\fP
|
|
.RS 4
|
|
Specify the desired \fInumber\fP of inodes (at most 512). If nothing is specified, some default number in the range 48\-512 is picked depending on the size of the partition.

\fB\-\-lock\fP[\fB=\fP\fImode\fP]
|
|
.RS 4
|
|
Use exclusive BSD lock for device or file it operates. The optional argument \fImode\fP can be \fByes\fP, \fBno\fP (or 1 and 0) or \fBnonblock\fP. If the \fImode\fP argument is omitted, it defaults to \fByes\fP. This option overwrites environment variable \fB$LOCK_BLOCK_DEVICE\fP. The default is not to use any lock at all, but it\(cqs recommended to avoid collisions with \fBsystemd\-udevd\fP(8) or other tools.
