The wsl.exe command accesses and manages Linux distributions in WSL via command-line interface (CLI) – for example via Command Prompt or PowerShell. With no arguments it enters the default distribution shell. It can list available distributions, set a default distribution, and uninstall distributions. [30]
fstab (after file systems table) is a system file commonly found in the directory /etc on Unix and Unix-like computer systems. In Linux, it is part of the util-linux package. The fstab file typically lists all available disk partitions and other types of file systems and data sources that may not necessarily be disk-based, and indicates how they are to be initialized or otherwise integrated ...
All of the Linux filesystem drivers support all three FAT types, namely FAT12, FAT16 and FAT32.Where they differ is in the provision of support for long filenames, beyond the 8.3 filename structure of the original FAT filesystem format, and in the provision of Unix file semantics that do not exist as standard in the FAT filesystem format such as file permissions. [1]
The command was originally designed to label floppy disks as a reminder of which one is in the machine. However, it can also be applied to other types of drive such as mapped drives. [5] It is available in MS-DOS versions 3.1 and later and IBM PC DOS releases 3 and later. [6] It is an external command.
With this option, Format writes bootstrap code to the first sector of the volume (and possibly elsewhere as well). Format always writes a BIOS Parameter Block to the first sector, with or without the /S option. Another option (/Q) allows for what Microsoft calls "Quick Format". With this option the command will not perform steps 2 and 3 above.
gvfsd-fuse maintains a FUSE (Filesystem in Userspace) mount to make GVfs back-ends available to POSIX applications. The mount point for the fuse filesystem is provided by the [PATH] argument. gvfsd-fuse is normally started by gvfsd. gvfsd-metadata: gvfsd-metadata is a daemon acting as a write serialiser to the internal gvfs metadata storage.
In computing, mount is a command in various operating systems. Before a user can access a file on a Unix-like machine, the file system on the device [1] which contains the file needs to be mounted with the mount command. Frequently mount is used for SD card, USB storage, DVD and other removable storage devices. The command is also available in ...
The command hdiutil attach -imagekey diskimage-class=CRawDiskImage -nomount <filename> causes a block device to appear in /dev as a regular disk device and subdevices for recognized partitions. Reads from and writes to those devices are sent to a user-mode helper process, which reads the data from the file or writes it to the file.
