In the future, all of the different mount_* utitilies should go bye bye. --=20 Tom Rhodes On Thu, Aug 16, 2007 at 02:20:59PM +0200, Daniel Ger¸o wrote: > > Hello Lars, > > On Thu, 16 Aug 2007 12:04:57 GMT, Lars Engels <lme@FreeBSD.org> wrote: > > > >>Number: 115571 > >>Category: docs > >>Synopsis: Use mount -t msdosfs instead of mount_msdosfs in the > > > On > > > http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/install-trouble.html > > could you please change mount_msdosfs to mount -t msdosfs? > > The former should no longe be executed manually. > > May I ask you why do you suspect that mount_msdosfs should > not be user any more? > Hi Daniel, please compare the number of mount_* binaries in a 6.x and a CURRENT System. <FreeBSD 7.0-CURRENT> [maggie:/sbin] lars@ttyp6 > ls mount_* | wc -l 9 <FreeBSD 6.2-RELEASE> [NB011798:/sbin] lars@ttyp2 > ls mount_* | wc -l 18 In src/sbin/mount/mount.c you find the following: /* XXX: We need to get away from implementing external mount * programs for every filesystem, and move towards having * each filesystem properly implement the nmount() system call. */ And there are several mails on mailinglists on that topic. E.g.: http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-current/2007-May/072783.html So advocating mount -t in the handbook is more future-proof. :-) Best regards, Lars Responsible Changed From-To: freebsd-doc->gabor Take. gabor 2007-08-22 15:50:32 UTC
