DISKTAB(5) FreeBSD File Formats Manual DISKTAB(5)
NAME
disktab -- disk description file
SYNOPSIS
#include <disklabel.h>
DESCRIPTION
Disktab is a simple database which describes disk geometries and disk
partition characteristics. It is used to initialize the disk label on
the disk. The format is patterned after the termcap(5) terminal data
base. Entries in disktab consist of a number of `:'-separated fields.
The first field for each entry gives the names by which a disk's entry
may be selected, separated by `|' characters. The last name given should
be a long name fully identifying the disk.
The optional fields for each entry are:
