|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
.Nm Disktab
|
|
is a simple database which describes disk geometries and
|
|
disk partition characteristics.
|
|
It is used
|
|
.\"by the formatter(\c
|
|
.\"IR.Xr format 8 )
|
|
.\"to determine how to format the disk, and
|
|
to initialize the disk label on the disk.
|
|
The format is patterned
|
|
after the
|
|
.Xr termcap 5
|
|
terminal data base. Entries in
|
|
.Nm disktab
|
|
consist of a number of `:' separated fields. The
|
|
first entry for each disk gives the names which are
|
|
known for the disk, separated by `|' characters. The
|
|
last name given should be a long name fully identifying
|
|
the disk.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The following list indicates the normal values
|
|
stored for each disk entry.
