NAME

SYNOPSIS

10       pktsetup packet_device block_device
11       pktsetup -d packet_device
12

DESCRIPTION

14       Pktsetup  is  used  to  associate  packet  devices with CD or DVD block
15       devices, so that the packet device can then be mounted and  potentially
16       used  as  a read/write filesystem. This requires kernel support for the
17       packet device, and the UDF filesystem.
