v. 3.78 The Law Enforcement and Forensic Examiner's Introduction to Linux The above mount commands look incomplete. When not enough information is given, the mount command will look to /etc/fstab to fill in the blanks. If it finds the required info, it will go ahead with the mount.
Note the "user" entry in the options column for some devices. This allows non­root users to mount the devices. Very useful. To find out more about available options for /etc/fstab, enter info fstab at the command prompt.
Also keep in mind that default Linux installations will often create /mnt/floppy and /mnt/cdrom for you already. After installing a new Linux system, have a look at /etc/fstab to see what is available for you. If what you need isn’t there, add it.
