MKCRAMFS(8)
NAME
mkcramfs - make a compressed ROM file system
SYNOPSIS
mkcramfs [-h] [-b blksize] [-e edition] [-i file] [-n name] dirname outfile
DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the mkcramfs command. This manual
page was written for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution (but may be used
by others), because the original program does not have a manual page.
mkcramfs constructs a CramFs from the contents of dirname. The image
of the resulting file system is placed in outfile.

- -i file
