Help! - Need to mmap() raw disk partition

Help! - Need to mmap() raw disk partition

Post by glasse.. » Tue, 28 Dec 1999 04:00:00



Merry Xmas to all,

I need to access a raw disk partition for
read/write as a linear space, and hopefully by
mmap (file memory mapping).  Does Linux 2.2
support either of these methods?  The partition
size is anywhere from 1 GB to 3 GB.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

(I tried to search Deja, but ever since they
massacred the GUI, it is impossible to find
anything anymore.)
