NAME
mkudffs - create an UDF filesystem
SYNOPSIS
mkudffs [ switches ] device [ blocks-count ]
DESCRIPTION
mkudffs is used to create a UDF filesystem on a device (usually a
disk). device is the special file corresponding to the device (e.g
/dev/hdX). blocks-count is the number of blocks on the device. If
omitted, mkudffs automagically figures the file system size. The order
of options matters. Ident string options must be first and options to
override default settings implied by the media-type or UDF revison
should be after the option they are overriding.
OPTIONS
-h,--help
Display the usage and list of options.
-l,--label= label
Specify the UDF label. UDF label is synonym for specifying both
--lvid and --vid options. If omitted, mkudffs label is LinuxUDF.
-u,--uuid= uuid
Specify the UDF uuid. Must be exactly 16 characters and is used
for first 16 characters of --fullvsid option. If omitted,
mkudffs uuid is generated from local time and random number.
-b,--blocksize= block-size
Specify the size of blocks in bytes. Valid block size vales are
512, 1024, 2048 and 4096 bytes per block. If omitted, mkudffs
block-size is set to device logical block (sector) size. If it
is unknown then block-size 2048 is used.
-r,--udfrev= udf-revision
Specify the udf revision to use. Valid revisions are 0x0201,
0x0200, 0x0150, and 0x0102. If omitted, mkudffs udf-revision is
0x0201. The hex values represent the ISO/IEC 13346 standard ver-
sion numbers: e.g. the 0x0201 refers to 2.01 (March 15, 2000)
which is mainly a bugfix release to UDF 2.00.
--lvid= logical-volume-ident
Specify the logical volume identifier. If omitted, mkudffs logi-
cal-volume-ident is LinuxUDF.
--vid= volume-ident
Specify the volume identifier. If omitted, mkudffs volume-ident
is LinuxUDF.
--vsid= volume-set-ident
Specify the 17.-127. character of volume set identifier. If
omitted, mkudffs volume-set-ident is LinuxUDF.
--fsid= file-set-ident
Specify the file set identifier. If omitted, mkudffs file-set-
ident is LinuxUDF.
--fullvsid= full-volume-set-ident
Specify the volume set identifier. Overwrite previous --uuid and
--vsid options.
--uid= uid
Specify the uid of the root (/) directory. If omitted, mkudffs
uid is 0.
--gid= gid
Specify the gid of the root (/) directory. If omitted, mkudffs
gid is 0.
--strategy= strategy
Specify the allocation strategy to use. Valid strategies are 4
and 4096. If omitted, mkudffs strategy is based on the media-
type.
--spartable= spartable-number
Specify the number of sparing tables to write to disc. Valid
numbers are 1 - 4. This option implies --media-type=cdrw.
--media-type= media-type
Specify the media type. Valid media types are:
hd (default) hard drive
dvd DVD (Digital Versatile Disc)
dvdram DVD-RAM (Digital Versatile Disc-Random Ac-
cess Memory)
dvdrw DVD-RW (DVD Read-Write)
worm WORM (Write Once Ready Many)
mo MO (Magneto Optical)
cdrw CD-RW (CD Read-Write)
cdr CD-R (CD Recordable)
--space= space
freedbitmap Freed bitmap
freedtable Freed table
unallocbitmap Unallocated bitmap
unalloctable Unallocated table
--ad= ad
inicb Allocation Descriptors in ICB
short Short Allocation Descriptors
long Long Allocation Descriptors
--noefe
Don't Use Extended File Entries
--u8 Ident string options are encoded in 8-bit OSTA Compressed Uni-
code equivalent. Must be specified as first argument.
--u16 Ident string options are encoded in 16-bit OSTA Compressed Uni-
code equivalent. Must be specified as first argument.
--utf8 Ident string options are encoded in UTF-8 (default). Must be
specified as first argument.
--closed
Make cdr media type closed (AVDP is written to start and also
end of disk). By default cdr media type is unclosed (AVDP is
written only to start of disk).
--packetlen= length
Packet length in number of sectors for cdrw (default: 32 sec-
tors) and dvdrw (default: 16 sectors) media types.
EXIT STATUS
mkudffs returns 0 if successful, non-zero if there are problems.
