FUSE-EXT2(1)

💖 FUSE-EXT2 💖

okay bestie, so this is fuse-ext2(1) from the General Commands Manual section — a whole little manual page, just for you 🎀

---

✨ NAME ✨

fuse-ext2 — it's a fuse2fs compatibility wrapper, no cap 🫶

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

fuse-ext2 [-hv] [-o ro|force|allow_others[,…]]… device|image mountpoint

that's it, that's the whole vibe check 👑

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so like… this wrapper is out here providing the fuse-ext2 interface via fuse2fs(1), and honestly? you should lowkey migrate to fuse2fs(1) instead. that's the whole point of this page. it's giving "legacy era, we've moved on" 💅

---

🎀 OPTIONS 🎀

• -h, --help — shows you the usage string. cute little reminder of how to use it ✨
• -v, --verbose — literally ignored. not me, it's the option. it does nothing 🙈
• -o, --options option[,…] — these are your mount.fuse3(8) options! most of them just get passed along, but a few get special treatment, and the way that works is:
  • ro — mounts it read-only 🔒
  • rw — mounts read-write if force is also given. and btw, this one is the default ⭐
  • rw+ — same as -o rw,force ✨
  • silent — ignored. just sitting there. doing nothing. iconic behaviour 💀
  • force — if rw is around, then it mounts read-write 🔥

all other options get forwarded to fuse2fs directly — no middleman energy, they go straight through 💨

⚠️ okay important one, bestie: if you give rw but not force, then the mount is read-only and a warning is issued. so like, don't be surprised. that's the deal 😭

and that's the whole page, you ate it 💅✨
