NAME
       jfs_debugfs - shell-type JFS file system editor

SYNOPSIS
       jfs_debugfs device

DESCRIPTION
       jfs_debugfs is a program which can be used to perform various low-level
       actions on a JFS formatted device.

       device is the special file name corresponding to the actual  device  to
       be edited (e.g. /dev/hdb1).

       jfs_debugfs must be run as root.

COMMANDS
       a[lter] <block> <offset> <hex_string>
	       replaces	 the  data  located  at	 the  <offset> of <block> with

	      <block> is the block number - given in decimal

	      <offset> is the offset within that block - given in hexadecimal

	      <hex_string> is an even-numbered string of hexadecimal digits to

	      <block> is the block number - given in decimal

	      <offset> is the offset within <block> - given in hexadecimal

	      <format> is one of the following:
	       a => ascii
	       b => block allocation map
	       d => decimal
	       i => inode
	       I => inode allocation map
