DISKPARTS 8
NAME
diskparts, dmaon - prepare disks for use
SYNOPSIS
diskparts [ disk ... ]

dmaon

DESCRIPTION
Diskparts configures FDISK (MBR) and Plan 9 partitions on the named disk s (\c /dev/sd* by default), then configures fs (3) by copying /cfg/$sysname/fsconfig , if present, to /dev/fs/ctl , if present, one line at a time. If #S or #k are not bound to /dev yet, they are first bound after the current contents.

Dmaon enables DMA for all attached IDE devices that claim to support it.
