5 Mount options
This section describes mount options for mounting supported file system partitions.
5.1 Mount options
SYNOPSYS
mount -t ufsd [-o options] device mount_point
Option NTFS HFS+ Expected behavior and examples
iocharset or
nls
+ + -o iocharset=NAME1[,iocharset=NAME2]
-o nls=NAME1[,nls=NAME2]
-o codepage=NAME1[,codepage=NAME2]
The NTFS/HFS+ file systems store all file/directory names in
Unicode format (UTF-16), which can represent any character
from any language. In case none of these options is set, the
default codepage will be used (CONFIG_NLS_DEFAULT). If
none of the specified codepages exist on the system, the default
codepage will be used again. This option informs the driver
how to interpret path strings and translate them to Unicode and
back. Up to 8 different code pages can be specified. The driver
tries to use the codepages from specified list in order until it
manages to translate all the characters in the string. If none of
the specified codepages allows to translate all the characters,
Kernel’s default codepages is used.
Note:
• Paragon driver uses extended UTF-8 for Unicode number
U+10000 characters support when ’=utf8’ is specified.
• codepage, nls and iocharset mount option must be used
in the form:
codepage=... nls=cp... iocharset=cp...
Examples:
• nls=utf8
• iocharset=utf8
nocase + - -o nocase
All file and directory operations (open, find, rename) are case
insensitive. Casing is preserved in the names of existing files
and directories.
showmeta + + -o showmeta
Use this parameter to show all meta-files (System Files) on a
mounted NTFS/HFS+ partition. By default, all meta-files are hid-
den.
