.SH SYNOPSIS
.B bzfs

.SH DESCRIPTION
.I Bzfs
reads a bzip2 (see
.IR gzip (1))
compressed filesystem archive as produced by
.IR mkfs (8)
and serves it as a writable ram filesystem. The
compressed archive file has to be provided with the
.B -f
.I file
option.
The
.B -m
option sets the mountpoint
.I mptp
(default /root).
If the
.B -s
flag is specified then the 9p channel
.B /srv/ramfs
is created to be used later for mounting the
filesystem.
