MSDOS.UTIL(8) BSD System Manager's Manual MSDOS.UTIL(8)NAME
msdos.util -- DOS/Windows (FAT) file system utility
SYNOPSIS
msdos.util -m mountflag1 mountflag2 mountflag3 mountflag4 device node
msdos.util -p mountflag1 mountflag2 mountflag3 mountflag4 device
msdos.util -u device
msdos.util -k device
msdos.util -n device name
DESCRIPTION
The msdos.util command supports the mounting, probing, and unmounting of FAT file systems.
Options:
-m mountflag1 mountflag2 mountflag3 mountflag4
mount
-n set name
-p mountflag1 mountflag2 mountflag3 mountflag4
probe for mounting
-u unmount
-k print volume UUID
mountflags above are either:
o removable or fixed
o readonly or writeable
o suid or nosuid
o dev or nodev
FAT volumes do not actually have a volume UUID. They have an optional 4-byte volume ID. If a volume has an ID, then it will be converted to
a version 3 UUID using MD5 to checksum the kFSUUIDNamespaceSHA1 UUID folowed by the volume ID.
For the -k option, if the volume has a volume ID, the exit status will be 253 and the UUID will be printed to standard out, without any
trailing newline. Otherwise, if the volume appears to be FAT, the exit status will be 255. If the volume does not appear to be FAT, the
exit status will be 254.

hfs.util -- HFS/HFS+ file system utility
SYNOPSIS
hfs.util -m device mountpoint [mountflag1] [mountflag2] [mountflag3] [mountflag4]
hfs.util -p device [mountflag1] [mountflag2] [mountflag3] [mountflag4]
hfs.util -J [size] mountpoint
hfs.util -U mountpoint
hfs.util -N device
hfs.util -I mountpoint
hfs.util [-aksu] device
DESCRIPTION
The hfs.util command supports the mounting, probing, and unmounting of HFS file systems.
Options:
-a Adopt permissions for the HFS file system at device
-I Print out status information about the journal on the HFS file system at mountpoint
-J [size] Enable journaling on the HFS file system mounted on mountpoint. An optional size may be specified (e.g. 32M for a 32
megabyte journal).
-k Get the UUID key for the HFS file system at device.
-m Mount the HFS file system located on device onto mountpoint with the flags mountflag1 mountflag2 mountflag3 mountflag4
-M Force mount the HFS file system located on device onto mountpoint with the flags mountflag1 mountflag2 mountflag3
mountflag4. This is a deprecated option.
-N Disable journaling on a HFS+ file system located at device
-p Probe the device for an HFS file system using the flags mountflag1 mountflag2 mountflag3 mountflag4
-s Set the UUID key (generates a new UUID value) for the HFS file system at device
-u Unmount the HFS file system located at device
-U Disable journaling on the HFS+ file system mounted on mountpoint
The mountflags referenced above are either:
o removable or fixed
o readonly or writeable
o suid or nosuid
o dev or nodev
Note that for the device references above, you must only supply the last component of the path to the device in question, such as disk0s2
rather than /dev/disk0s2.
