NAME
      fsdb - file system debugger
 


SYNOPSIS
      fsdb [ -F FSType ]  [ -V ]  [  -o FSType-specific_options  ]
      special
 


DESCRIPTION
      fsdb is a file system debugger that allows  for  the  manual
      repair  of  a file system after a crash.   special is a spe-
      cial  device   used  to  indicate  the  file  system  to  be
      debugged.  fsdb  is  intended  for  experienced  users only.
      FSType is the file system type to be  debugged.  Since  dif-
      ferent FSTypes have different structures and hence different
      debugging capabilities, the manual  pages  for  the  FSType-
      specific  fsdb  should  be  consulted  for  a  more detailed
      description of the debugging capabilities.
 


OPTIONS
      -F    Specify the  FSType on which to operate.  The   FSType
            should  either  be  specified  here or be determinable
            from  /etc/vfstab by matching  the   special  with  an
            entry in the table, or by consulting /etc/default/fs.
 
      -V    Echo the complete command line, but do not execute the
            command.  The  command  line is generated by using the
            options and arguments provided by the user and  adding
            to  them  information  derived from  /etc/vfstab. This
            option may be used to verify and validate the  command
            line.
 
      -o    Specify  FSType-specific options.
 
 USAGE
      See largefile(5) for the description of the behavior of fsdb
      when encountering files greater than or equal to 2 Gbyte ( 2
     **31 bytes).
