Subject: what does "drive" mean in mlable man page?
Date: Mon, 19 Oct 2015 18:38:49 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <562570F9.40401@earthlink.net> (raw)
Like in most man pages, examples that would explain ambiguous term meanings
are absent. blkid doesn't say what the existing "drive" is. How does one find
out? Can "drive" be a synonym for device name? The mtools man page is
ambiguous by lack of adequate example as well. I wish to change the labels on
/dev/sdc3, /dev/sdc5 and /dev/sdc6.
