NAME

diskparts, dmaon − prepare disks for use

SYNOPSIS

­diskparts [ ­disk ...  ]
­dmaon

DESCRIPTION

­Diskparts configures FDISK (MBR) and Plan 9 partitions on the named disks ( /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.
