FSTYP(8) BSD System Manager's Manual FSTYP(8)

NAME
     ffssttyypp - identify a file system

SYNOPSIS
     ffssttyypp device

DESCRIPTION
     The ffssttyypp utility attempts to determine what sort of volume is present on
     the given device.  It operates by iterating over directories that are
     typically part of the path, searching for files matching the pattern
     fstyp* and running them.  If it finds a match, it will print out the
     file system type name and exit with a return value of 1.  If it does not
     find a match, it will not print out anything, and the return value will
     be 0.
