NAME
mkpaqfs - make a compressed read-only file system
SYNOPSIS
mkpaqfs [ -u ] [ -b blocksize ] [ -l label ] [ -o file ] [ source ]
DESCRIPTION
Mkpaqfs copies files from the file tree source (default .) to the
paqfs(4) file system archive file.
The files and directory structure are divided into blocksize (default
4096) byte blocks. Larger blocks make large files more compact but
take longer to access. Blocksize must be in the range of 512 bytes to
512K bytes. If the -u option is set, the blocks are not compressed.
Otherwise each block is compressed using the flate(2) compression algo‐
rithm. The -l option embeds a label of up to 32 bytes within the file
header and may be useful for identifying the file system.
