MOUNT(II) 8/5/73 MOUNT(II)
NAME
mount - mount file system
SYNOPSIS
(mount = 21.)
sys mount; special; name
DESCRIPTION
Mount announces to the system that a removable file system
has been mounted on the block-structured special file
special; from now on, references to file name will refer to
the root file on the newly mounted file system. Special and
name are pointers to null-terminated strings containing the
appropriate path names.
Name must exist already. Its old contents are inaccessible
while the file system is mounted.
SEE ALSO
mount(I), umount(II)
DIAGNOSTICS
Error bit (c-bit) set if: special is inaccessible or not an
appropriate file; name does not exist; special is already
mounted; there are already too many file systems mounted.
