+.SH DESCRIPTION
+\fBmkreiserfs\fR creates a Linux ReiserFS filesystem on a device (usually a disk
+partition).
+.TP
+.I device
+is the special file corresponding to a device or to a partition (e.g 
+/dev/hdXX for an IDE disk partition or /dev/sdXX for a SCSI disk partition).
+.TP
+.I filesystem-size
+is the size in blocks of the filesystem. If omitted, \fBmkreiserfs\fR will
+automatically set it.
+.SH OPTIONS
+.TP
+\fB-b\fR | \fB--block-size \fIN\fR
+\fIN\fR is block size in bytes. It may only be set to a power of 2 within the
+512-8192 interval.
+.TP
+\fB-h\fR | \fB--hash \fIHASH\fR
+\fIHASH\fR specifies which hash function will sort the names in the directories.
+Choose from r5, rupasov, or tea. r5 is the default one.
+.TP
+\fB--format \fIFORMAT\fR
+\fIFORMAT\fR specifies the format for the new filsystem. Choose format 3.5 or
+3.6. If none is specified \fBmkreiserfs\fR will create format 3.6 if running
+kernel is 2.4 or higher, and format 3.5 if kernel 2.2 is running, and will
+refuse creation under all other kernels.
+.TP
+\fB-u\fR | \fB--uuid \fIUUID\fR
+Sets  the  Universally  Unique  IDentifier  of  the  filesystem  to  \fIUUID\fR 
+(see  also  \fBuuidgen(8)\fR).  The  format  of  the  \fIUUID\fR  is  a  series 
+of  hex  digits separated by hypthens, e.g.: "c1b9d5a2-f162-11cf-9ece-0020afc76f16".
+If  the option  is skipped,  \fBmkreiserfs\fR  will by default generate a new
+\fIUUID\fR.
+.TP
+\fB-l\fR | \fB--label \fILABEL\fR
+Sets  the  volume  label  of  the filesystem. \fILABEL\fR can at most be 16
+characters long; if it is longer than 16 characters, \fBmkreiserfs\fR will 
+truncate it.
+.TP
+\fB-q\fR | \fB--quiet \fR
+Sets \fBmkreiserfs\fR to work quietly without producing messages, progress or
+questions. It is useful, but only for use by end users, if you run \fBmkreiserfs\fR 
+in a script.
+.TP
+\fB-j\fR | \fB--journal-device \fIFILE\fR
+\fIFILE\fR is the name of the block device on which is to be places the 
+filesystem journal.
+.TP
+\fB-o\fR | \fB--journal-offset \fIN\fR
+\fIN\fR is the offset where the journal starts when it is to be on a separate
+device. Default is 0. \fIN\fR has no effect when the journal is to be on the
+host device.
+.TP
+\fB-s\fR | \fB--journal-size \fIN
+\fIN\fR is the size of the journal in blocks. When the journal is to be on a
+separate device, its size defaults to the number of blocks that the device has.
+When journal is to be on the host device, its size defaults to 8193 and the
+maximal possible size is 32749 (for blocksize 4k). The minimum size is 513 blocks
+(whether the journal is on the host or on a separate device).
+.TP
+\fB-t\fR | \fB--transaction-max-size \fIN
+\fIN\fR is the maximum transaction size parameter for the journal. The
+default, and max possible, value is 1024 blocks. It should be less
+than half the size of the journal. If specified incorrectly, it will automatically 
+be adjusted.
+.TP
+\fB-B\fR | \fB--badblocks \fIfile
+\fIFile\fR is the file name of the file that contains the list of blocks to be 
+marked as bad on the filesystem. This list can be created by
+\fB/sbin/badblocks \-b block-size device\fR.
+.TP
+\fB-f\fR
+Forces \fBmkreiserfs\fR to continue even when the device is the whole disk, 
+looks mounted, or is not a block device. If \fB-f\fR is specified more than
+once, it allows the user to avoid asking for confirmation.
+.TP
+\fB-d\fR
+Sets \fBmkreiserfs\fR to print debugging information during \fBmkreiserfs\fR.
+.TP
+\fB-V\fR
+Prints the version and then exits.
