.SH NAME
\f4fsdb\f1 (generic) \- file system debugger
.SH SYNOPSIS
\f4fsdb\f1 [\f4\-F\f2 FSType\f1] [\f4\-V\f1] [\f2 current_options\f1] [\f4\-o\f2 specific_options\f1]\f2 special \f1
.SH DESCRIPTION
\f4fsdb\f1 is a file system debugger which allows for the manual repair
of a file system after a crash.  \f2special\f1 is a special device 
used to indicate the file system to be debugged.
\f4fsdb\f1  is intended for experienced users only.
\f2FSType\f1 is the file system type to be debugged.
Since different \f2FSTypes\fP
have different structures and hence different debugging capabilities
the manual pages for the \f2FSType\fP-specific \f4fsdb\f1 should
be consulted for a more detailed description of the debugging capabilities.
.PP
.PP
\f2current_options\f1
are options supported by the \f4s5\f1-specific module of \f4fsdb\f1.
Other \f2FSTypes\fP do not necessarily support these options.
\f2specific_options\f1 indicate suboptions specified in a comma-separated 
list of suboptions and/or keyword-attribute pairs for interpretation by 
the \f2FSType\f1-specific module of the command. 
.PP
The options are:
.TP 10
\f4\-F\f1
Specify the \f2FSType\f1 on which to operate. 
The \f2FSType\f1 should either be specified here
or be determinable from \f4/etc/vfstab\f1
by matching the \f2special\f1
with an entry in the table.
.TP 10
\f4\-V\f1
Echo the complete command line,
but do not execute the command.
The command line is generated by using
the options and arguments provided by the user
and adding to them information
derived from \f4/etc/vfstab\f1.
This option should be used to
verify and validate the command line.
.TP 10
\f4\-o\f1
Specify \f2FSType\fP-specific options.
.SH NOTE
This command may not be supported for all \f2FSTypes\fP.
.SH FILES

\f4/etc/vfstab\f1 	list of default parameters for each file system
