.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.Fd #include <libahdi.h>
|
|
.Ft int
|
|
.Fn ahdi_writedisktab "struct ahdi_ptable *ptable" "char *disktype" "char *disktab" "char *dtype"
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
function takes an AHDI label and writes it out in
|
|
.Xr disktab 5
|
|
format. The
|
|
.Em disktype
|
|
parameter is the name given to the entry and can be passed as the
|
|
.Em disktype
|
|
to
|
|
.Xr disklabel 8 .
|
|
The
|
|
.Em disktab
|
|
parameter is the name of the disktab file to append the disktab to. If this
|
|
parameter is empty, the default /etc/disktab is used. The
|
|
.Em dtype
|
|
parameter, if not empty, is used as the `dt' paramter in the disktab. It should
|
|
be one of the dktypenames defined in /usr/include/sys/disklabel.h.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
If an AHDI label has been written to the disk using the
|
|
.Fn ahdi_writedisktab
|
|
function, the partition letters on the disk may not be consistent with those
|
|
in the ptable variable until a NetBSD dislabel
|
|
has been written with the
|
|
.Xr disklabel
|
|
command, using the disklabel generated by this function.
|
|
.Sh DIAGNOSTICS
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
function returns the following codes:

|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
function does not recognise the (deprecated) partition ID's
|
|
.Em NBR ,
|
|
.Em NBU
|
|
or
|
|
.Em NBS .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
If no partition of type
|
|
.Em NBD
|
|
or
|
|
.Em RAW
|
|
exist, no NetBSD disklabel can be written to the disk.
