MKFS.BFS(8)	      Linux System Administrator's Manual	   MKFS.BFS(8)

NAME
       mkfs.bfs - make an SCO bfs filesystem

SYNOPSIS
       mkfs.bfs	 [-N  nr-of-inodes] [-V volume-name] [-F fsname] device [size-
       in-blocks]

DESCRIPTION
       mkfs.bfs creates an SCO bfs file-system on a block  device  (usually  a
       disk partition or a file accessed via the loop device).

       The size-in-blocks parameter is the desired size of the file system, in
       blocks.	If nothing is specified, the entire partition will be used.

OPTIONS
       -N     Specify the desired number of inodes (at most 512).  If  nothing
	      is  specified  some default number in the range 48-512 is picked
	      depending on the size of the partition.

       -V volume-label
	      Specify the volume label. I have no idea if/where this is used.

       -F fsname
	      Specify the fsname. I have no idea if/where this is used.

       -v     Be verbose.

EXIT CODES

       something went wrong.
