SYNOPSIS
|
|
/etc/fstab
|
|
|

|
DESCRIPTION
|
|
/etc/fstab is a table of file system to mount at boot time, /etc/mtab is
|
|
a table of currently mounted file systems as maintained by mount and
|
|
umount.
|
|
|
|
/etc/fstab is not read by mount as it should be. It is instead a simple
|
|
shell script listing the three devices that Minix needs to operate: The
|
|
device names of the root file system, the temporary (scratch) file
|
|
system, and the file system for /usr. Of these only the /usr file system
|
|
is mounted in /etc/rc, the scratch file system is there for the system
|
|
administrator to test new kernels, or as a temporary file system.
|
|
|
|
/etc/mtab contains lines of four fields. The layout is:
|
|
|
|
device directory type options
|
|
|
|
These fields may be explained as follows:
|
|
|
|
device
|
|
A block special device.

directory
|
|
