MOUNT_VND(8) - System Manager’s Manual # MOUNT_VND(8) - System Manager’s Manual
NAME # mount_vnd - mount vnode disks
SYNOPSIS # mount_vnd [-k] [-K rounds] [-o options] [-S saltfile] [-t disktype] image vnd_dev
DESCRIPTION # mount_vnd works similarly to vnconfig(8), but it provides an interface that can be used by the fstab(5) infrastructure, so that an image file can be configured to a device vnd_dev while booting.
For fstab(5) lines with type “ffs”, the “noauto” option must be set to prevent a mount(8) of the FFS partitions before the necessary vnd devices are configured.
