makefsys(1M)                                                   makefsys(1M)


   NAME
         makefsys - create a file system

   SYNOPSIS
         makefsys

   DESCRIPTION
         The makefsys command allows you to create a file system.

         The command invokes a visual interface (the make task available
         through the sysadm command).

         The initial prompt allows you to select the device on which to create
         the file system.  After selecting the device, you are asked some
         further questions before the file system is created.

         The identical function is available under the sysadm menu:

               sysadm make

   DIAGNOSTICS
         The makefsys command exits with one of the following values:

         0     Normal exit.

         2     Invalid command syntax.  A usage message is displayed.

         7     The visual interface for this command is not available because
               it cannot invoke fmil.  (The FMLI package is not installed or
               is corrupted.)
