e2mkdir - creates a directory on an ext2 filesystem

e2mkdir [ options ] directory...

The e2mkdir command creates directories on an ext2 filesystem. It behaves similar to ‘mkdir -p’.

	-G gid		Set the default group to gid.
	-O uid		Set the default file owner to uid.

-P mode

Set the file permissions (ie 755, 666).

-v

Be verbose.

This program expects to have a full ext2 file specification for each argument.

This creates the directory ‘/boot/grub‘ with on ‘boot.img‘ with the current user and group ids:

e2mkdir boot.img:/boot/grub

To override the default ownership and permissions:

e2mkdir -O 100 -P 700 /dev/hdb1:/data/backup
