.SH NAME
mkfs.reiser4 \- the program for creating reiser4 filesystem.
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B mkfs.reiser4
[ options ] FILE1 FILE2 ... [ size[K|M|G] ]
.SH DESCRIPTION
.B mkfs.reiser4
is reiser4 filesystem creation program. It is based on new libreiser4
library. Since libreiser4 is fully plugin-based, we have the potential
to create not just reiser4 partitions, but any filesystem or database
format, which is based on balanced trees.
.SH COMMON OPTIONS
.TP
.B -V, --version
prints program version.
.TP
.B -?, -h, --help
prints program help.
.TP
.B -y, --yes
assumes an answer 'yes' to all questions.
.TP
.B -f, --force
forces mkfs to use whole disk, not block device or mounted partition.
.SH MKFS OPTIONS
.TP
.B -b, --block-size N
block size to be used (architecture page size by default)
.TP
.B -L, --label LABEL
volume label to be used
.TP
.B -U, --uuid UUID
universally unique identifier to be used
.TP
.B -s, --lost-found
forces mkfs to create lost+found directory.
.TP
.B -d, --discard
tells mkfs to discard given device before creating the filesystem (for
solid state drives).
.SH PLUGIN OPTIONS
.TP
.B -p, --print-profile
prints the plugin profile. This is the set of default plugins used for all
parts of a filesystem -- format, nodes, files, directories, hashes, etc. If
--override is specified, then prints modified plugins.
.TP
.B -l, --print-plugins
prints all plugins libreiser4 know about.
.TP
.B -o, --override TYPE=PLUGIN, ...
overrides the default plugin of the type "TYPE" by the plugin "PLUGIN"
in the plugin profile.
.sp 1
Examples:
.sp 1
assign short key plugin to "key" field in order to create filesystem
with short keys policy:
.sp 1
mkfs.reiser4 -yf -o key=key_short /dev/hda2
