NAME
partfs – serve file, with partitions

SYNOPSIS
disk/partfs [ –Dr ] [ –d diskname ] [ –m mtpt ] [ –s srvname ] diskimage

DESCRIPTION
Partfs presents the file diskimage in the manner of sd(3) on mtpt/diskname (default /dev/sdXX). Changes made to the disk are written through to diskimage unless the –r option is given.

When setting disk geometry with the geometry control message, the arguments are sectors and sector size.

The –s option causes partfs to post its 9P service at /srv/service.
