NAME¶
mklogfs - create a LogFS filesystem.
SYNOPSIS¶
mklogfs [
OPTIONS]
DEVICE
DESCRIPTION¶
LogFS is a scalable flash filesystem. It is aimed to replace JFFS2 for most
uses, but focuses more on large devices. JFFS2 works well enough on small
devices, it just gets slow and uses up too much memory on larger ones.
OPTIONS¶
- -c, --compress
- turn compression on.
- -h, --help
- display help.
- -s, --segshift
- segment shift in bits.
- -w, --writeshift
- write shift in bits.
- --demo-mode
- skip bad block scan; don't erase device.
- --non-interactive
- turn off safety question before writing.
Segment size and write size are powers of two. To specify them, the appropriate
power is specified with the "-s" or "-w" options, instead
of the actual size. E.g. "mklogfs -w8" will set a writesize of 256
Bytes (2^8).
