NAME

       mkudffs - create an UDF filesystem

SYNOPSIS

       mkudffs [ switches ] device [ blocks-count ]

DESCRIPTION

       mkudffs  is  used  to create a UDF filesystem on a device (usually a disk).  device is the
       special file corresponding to the device (e.g /dev/hdX). blocks-count  is  the  number  of
       blocks on the device.  If omitted, mkudffs automagically figures the file system size.

OPTIONS

       --help Display the usage and list of options.

       -b,--blocksize= block-size
              Specify the size of blocks in bytes. Valid block size vales are 1024, 2048 and 4096
              bytes per block. If omitted, mkudffs block-size is 2048.

       -r,--udfrev= udf-revision
              Specify the udf revision to use. Valid revisions are 0x0201,  0x0200,  0x0150,  and
              0x0102. If omitted, mkudffs udf-revision is 0x0201.

       --lvid= logical-volume-ident
              Specify the logical volume identifier.

       --vid= volume-ident
              Specify the volume identifier.

       --vsid= volume-set-ident
              Specify the volume set identifier.

       --fsid= file-set-ident
              Specify the file set identifier.

       --strategy= strategy
              Specify  the  allocation  strategy  to  use.  Valid  strategies are 4 and 4096.  If
              omitted, mkudffs strategy is based on the media-type.

       --spartable= spartable-number
              Specify the number of sparing tables to write to disc. Valid numbers  are  1  -  4.
              This option implies --media-type=cdrw.

       --media-type= media-type
              Specify the media type. Valid media types are:
