Command: printroot - print the name of the root device on standard
output
Syntax: printroot
Flags: -r Print only the root device, not a full mtab line
Example: printroot # Print the name of the root device
Printroot is useful for initializing the /etc/mtab when the system
is booted. It figures out what the root device is by searching /dev
until it finds a block special file with the right major/minor device
numbers.
