pktsetup - set up and tear down packet device associations
pktsetup packet_device block_device
pktsetup -d packet_device
pktsetup -s
Pktsetup is used to associate packet devices with CD or DVD block
devices, so that the packet device can then be mounted and potentially used as
a read/write filesystem. This requires kernel support for the packet device,
and the UDF filesystem.
See: HOWTO.udf (in the udftools documents directory)
Pktsetup returns 0 on success, nonzero on failure.
-
-d packet-device
- Delete the association between the specified
packet-device and its block device.
- -s
- Show the current device mapping, one device per line, in
the format
name : pktdevid -> blkdevid
(e.g. "0 : 253:0 -> 22:0")
The following commands provide an example of using the packet device.
-
cdrwtool -d /dev/sr0 -q
pktsetup 0 /dev/sr0
mount -t udf /dev/pktcdvd0 /mnt
...
umount /dev/pktcdvd0
pktsetup -d 0
/dev/pktcdvd0,/dev/pktcdvd1,... CD/DVD packet devices
