al@17992 1 With posixovl it is possible to mount FAT, VFAT, NTFS file system so that it
al@17992 2 behaves like POSIX. File permissions, symbolic links etc. are supported
al@17992 3 transparently. An extra file stores the information and the file system itself
al@17992 4 stays unmodified. It is a modern equivalent of the UMSDOS file system.
al@17992 5
al@17992 6 Typical use: Mount an USB FAT32 drive with posixovl and your files retain their
al@17992 7 permission settings.
al@17992 8
al@17992 9 This package extends mount and provides option '-t posixovl'.
