I want to create a mfs filesystem with a large number of Inodes (this is
for the hoststatus information maintained by sendmail).
I can do this on the command line with something like:-
mfs -i256 -s65536 /hoststatus
which will create 1 inode for every 256 bytes (host status information is
just a directory entry) and 32Mb of space.
I cannot work out how to get this into an FSTab entry so it is mounted on
boot.
Also mfs will create the FS with the default permissions of 1777, which
are too permissive for sendmail, it needs 700.
I could do this in a startup script, but that just seems messy...
Any ideas?
