     BZFS(4)                                                   BZFS(4)

     NAME
          bzfs - compressed read-write ram filesystem

     SYNOPSIS
          bzfs [ -m mtpt ] [ -s ] [ -f file ]

     DESCRIPTION
          Bzfs reads a bzip2 (see gzip(1)) compressed filesystem
          archive as produced by mkfs(8) and serves it as a writable
          ram filesystem. The compressed archive file has to be pro-
          vided with the -f file option.  The -m option sets the
          mountpoint mptp (default /root).  If the -s flag is speci-
          fied then the 9p channel /srv/ramfs is created to be used
          later for mounting the filesystem.
