dm-linear
|
|
=========
|
|
|
|
Device-Mapper's "linear" target maps a linear range of the Device-Mapper
|
|
device onto a linear range of another device. This is the basic building
|
|
block of logical volume managers.
|
|
|
|
Parameters: <dev path> <offset>
|
|
<dev path>: Full pathname to the underlying block-device, or a
|
|
"major:minor" device-number.
|
|
<offset>: Starting sector within the device.
|
|
|
|
|
|
