48.Sh ORIGIN
49The
50.Nx
51FILECORE filesystem is a read only implementation of the filecore file system
52found in Acorn Computers RISC OS operating system.
53This operating system is the ROM based operating system
54found on their ARM 6, ARM7 and StrongARM 110 based RiscPC machines
55that are supported by the arm32 port.
56Under RISC OS, filecore will have multiple instantiations for file
57systems on different block devices such as floppies, IDE discs, SCSI discs
58etc. and these frquently are considered to be different filesystems
59e.g. ADFS, IDEFS, SCSIFS etc.
60.Sh DESCRIPTION
61The
62.Nm
63command attaches the FILECORE filesystem residing on
64the device
65.Pa special
66to the global filesystem namespace at the location
67indicated by
68.Pa node .
69This command is normally executed by
70.Xr mount 8
71at boot time, but can be used by any user to mount a
72FILECORE file system on any directory that they own (provided,
73of course, that they have appropriate access to the device that
74contains the file system).
75.Pp
76The options are as follows:
77.Bl -tag -width Ds
78.It Fl o Ar options
79Use the specified mount
80.Ar options ,
81as described in
82.Xr mount 8 .
83.It Fl u Ar uid
84Set the owner of the files in the file system to
85.Ar uid .
86The default owner is the owner of the directory
87on which the file system is being mounted.
88.It Fl g Ar gid
89Set the group of the files in the file system to
90.Ar gid .
91The default group is the group of the directory
92on which the file system is being mounted.
93.It Fl a
94Give all files world access.
95.It Fl n
96Give all files owner access.
97.It Fl R
98Give all files owner read access.
99.It Fl f
100Append the filetype to each filename.
101This option currently has no effect.

108.Sh CAVEATS
109The
110.Sq filecore
111filesystem currently supports the Acorn filecore file system found on
112Acorn Computers RiscPC desktop machines with versions of RISC OS upto 3.70.
113.Sh HISTORY
114The
115.Nm
116utility first appeared in
