NAME
bxcommit - Interactive Tool to Commit Redologs into flat Disk Images
for Bochs
SYNOPSIS
bxcommit [options] [flat_filename] [redolog_filename]
DESCRIPTION
Bxcommit is an easy to use console based tool for committing redologs
into flat disk images, particularly for use with Bochs. It is
completely interactive if no command line arguments are used. It
can be switched to a non-interactive mode if all required parameters
are given in the command line.
OPTIONS
When you run bxcommit without one of the following options, it will
appear in interactive mode and ask for all required parameters
to do the commit.
-mode=commit-undoable
commit undoable redolog to flat file
-mode=growing-to-flat
create flat disk image from growing disk image
-mode=flat-to-growing
create growing disk image from flat disk image
-d delete redolog file after commit
-q quiet mode (don't prompt for user input)
--help display this help and exit
The first filename parameter specifies the name of the flat image that
will be created or modified. The second one specifies the name of the
redolog.
