and plain file images too. If no TOC can be read, a single track is assumed which spans the whole thing. The disklabel will be updated if supported by the device. If not, just the ISO volume label information will be printed.

|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
.Nm
|
|
is used to generate a
|
|
.Nx
|
|
disk label from track information read from the CD. This way, data
|
|
of previous sessions of a multi-session CD can be accessed.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Nm
|
|
scans the CD's TOC, beginning with the last track.
|
|
For each data track where an ISO9660 filesystem is identified,
|
|
basic information (volume label, creation date) is printed and
|
|
a partition entry added to the in-core disklabel.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The raw partition (typically partition
|
|
.Em c ,
|
|
but
|
|
.Em d
|
|
on i386 and some other platforms) is left alone during this process.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
utility can also be used on files or non-CD devices.
|
|
In this case a single track is assumed.
|
|
If the device supports disk labels, a label will be written
|
|
as described above. Otherwise, just the ISO volume label
|
|
information will be printed.
