38 .SH DESCRIPTION
39 These commands interpret data from traditional tape or file system formats
40 stored in
41 .IR file ,
42 and mount their contents (read-only) into a Plan 9 file system.
43 The optional
44 .B -p
45 and
46 .B -g
47 flags specify Unix-format password (respectively group) files
48 that give the mapping between the numeric user- and group-ID
49 numbers on the media and the strings reported by Plan 9 status
50 inquiries.
51 The
52 .B -m
53 flag introduces the name at which the new file system should be
54 attached; the default is
55 .BR /n/tapefs .
56 .PP
57 .I 32vfs
58 interprets raw disk images of 32V systems, which are ca. 1978 research Unix systems for
59 the VAX (512 byte block size, the default), and also pre-FFS Berkeley VAX systems (1KB block size).
60 .PP
61 .I Cpiofs
62 interprets
63 .B cpio
64 tape images (constructed with
65 .BI cpio 's
66 .B c
67 flag).
68 .PP
69 .I Tarfs
70 interprets
71 .I tar
72 tape images.
73 .PP
74 .I Tpfs
75 interprets
76 .I tp
77 tapes from the Fifth through Seventh Edition research Unix systems.
78 .PP
79 .I Tapfs
80 interprets
81 .I tap
82 tapes from the pre-Fifth Edition era.
83 .PP
84 .I V6fs
85 interprets disk images from the
86 Fifth and Sixth edition research Unix systems (512B block size).
87 .PP
88 .I V10fs
89 interprets disk images from the
90 Tenth Edition research Unix systems (4KB block size).
91 .PP
92 .I Zipfs
93 interprets zip archives (see
94 .MR gzip (1) ).
95 .SH SOURCE
96 .PP
97 These commands are constructed in a highly stereotyped
98 way using the files
99 .I fs.c
100 and
101 .I util.c
102 in
103 .BR \*9/src/cmd/tapefs ,
104 which in
105 turn derive substantially from
106 .MR ramfs (4) .
