NAME

       mkcramfs - make a compressed ROM file system

SYNOPSIS

       mkcramfs [-h] [-b blksize] [-e edition] [-i file] [-n name] dirname outfile

DESCRIPTION

       This manual page documents briefly the mkcramfs command.  This manual page was written for
       the Debian GNU/Linux distribution (but may  be  used  by  others),  because  the  original
       program does not have a manual page.

       mkcramfs  constructs  a  CramFs  from the contents of dirname.  The image of the resulting
       file system is placed in outfile.

OPTIONS

       -h     Give a brief help message.

       -E     Make all warnings errors (non-zero exit status).

       -b blksize
              Set the block size of the generated file system.

       -e edition
              Set the edition number (part of fsid).

       -i file
              Insert a file image into the filesystem (requires Linux >= 2.4.0).

       -n name
              Set the name of the CramFs filesystem.

       -p     Pad by 512 bytes for boot code.

       -s     Sort directory entries (old option, ignored).

       -v     Turn on verbose mode.

       -z     Make explicit holes (requires Linux >= 2.3.39).
