.Dd November 29, 2011 .Dt MOUNT_CHFS 8 .Os .Sh NAME .Nm mount_chfs .Nd mount a CHFS flash file system .Sh SYNOPSIS .Nm .Sh DESCRIPTION Mounts a flash file system from a .Xr flash 4 device. CHFS file systems can be only mounted from flash devices. For regular block devices like SSD drives or USB drives, please use a regular file system. The file system will be created during the first mount. CHFS stands for Chip File System. .Sh EXAMPLES .Dl mount_chfs /dev/flash0 /mnt .Sh SEE ALSO .Xr flash 4 , .Xr fstab 5 , .Xr mount 8 , .Xr flash 9 .Sh HISTORY CHFS was originally called ChewieFS during development. The name was changed to avoid legal issues and to have a more neutral name. .Sh AUTHORS CHFS was developed at the Department of Software Engineering, University of Szeged, Hungary. .Sh BUGS CHFS has a few known bugs as of 2011. Writing the FS full can cause problems. Truncating a file and growing it again can cause the new bytes not having all zeroes, but filled with the old content instead.
