Example File

Each line in the file describes a filesystem, and contain fields (specified in columns) used to provide information about its mountpoint, the options which should be used when mounting it etc. Each field can be separated from one another either by spaces or tabs:

# /etc/fstab: static file system information.
# <file system>                           <mount point>  <type>  <options>                     <dump>  <pass>
