GEOS.INI
GEOS.INI: [gfs]
The [gfs] category controls the behavior of the network file
system drivers, typically used only on megafile systems or
ROM based devices.
-
drive = <name>
-
Specifies the name of the drive used to access the filesystem. The default
is GFS. Single-letter drive names that do not conflict with existing DOS
drive names are best.
-
file = <path>
-
Specifies the path of the megafile for the megafile driver only. This can
be a full path including drive specifier or it can be a relative path, in
which case it will be relative to the root of the disk from which the system
was booted.
-
cache file = <absolute path>
-
If present, this specifies that the megafile should be cached in the given
file, if the volume on which it resides is present. This is normally a local
hard disk.
-
cache min space = <number>
-
Specifies the mimimum free space (in bytes) needed in order to cache the
megafile.
-
cache copy string = <string>
-
Specifies the string to display to let the user know that the megafile is
being cached.
-
bootstrapPath = <path>
-
Indicate that once the megafile is up and running, we want to completely
forget about the bootstrap directory on the server, to reduce the network
traffic that would be generated by FIND_FIRST and FIND_NEXT calls. Basically,
this path will be removed from the SP_TOP list. The syntax for this path
is the same as the "file=" key defined above.
