Mounting typically involves the attaching of an additional filesystem to the currently accessible filesystem of a computer.[1]

Telepítés

The mount command is part of the util-linux package. In Gentoo Linux, sys-apps/util-linux is part of the system set and is installed on all Gentoo systems by default.

If for some strange and unordinary reason it is missing it can be re-installed by running a simple emerge command (always use the --oneshot option). This can also be used after changing USE flags:

root #emerge --ask --oneshot sys-apps/util-linux

Usage

root #mount --help

List mounts

Show mounted filesystems by running the mount command with no arguments or options:

root #mount
Tip
There is also a more visual way of showing mounted filesystems using the findmnt tool also provided by sys-apps/util-linux. For more details see man 8 findmnt.

Mount filesystem

To mount a filesystem, a device file, UUID or label or other means of locating the partition or data source and a mount point are required. Non-system relevant filesystems are normally mounted in the /mnt directory. The proper syntax for mounting a file system is as follows:

root #mount <DEVICE> <DIRECTORY>

For further details, see man 8 mount.

The /media directory is generally used to mount removable devices such as USB drives or SD cards. After determining which device the USB drive shows up as, a command like the following could be used to mount its contents to a newly created usb folder in /media:

root #mkdir /media/usb
root #mount /dev/sdb1 /media/usb

Unmount a filesystem

To unmount a filesystem, the device file or the mount point can be specified:

root #umount <DEVICE>
root #umount <DIRECTORY>

Invocation information:

user $umount --help

Mount options

Sometimes, mounting a filesystem requires special options:

root #mount [OPTIONS] <DEVICE> <DIRECTORY>
Program options:
Option Description
-f Simulate the mount
-t Specify the filesystem, e.g ext4
-o OPTION1,OPTION2,... Specify the mount options (see below)
-a Mount all filesystems in /etc/fstab

The filesystem being used must support the mount option being passed. Many options are common, but some are filesystem specific.

Note
It is advised to always consult man pages of both mount and the particular filesystem (for example ext4(5) or xfs(5)).
Mount options:
Option Description
defaults Use the default mount options: rw, suid, dev, exec, auto, nouser, async.
auto Mount the filesystem automatically on boot.
noauto Do not mount the filesystem automatically on boot.
ro Mount the filesystem read-only.
rw Mount the filesystem read-write.
sw Mount a swap partition.
atime Update inode access times on every read.
relatime Update inode access times only on writes to improve I/O performance.
noatime Never update inode access times for best I/O performance.
sync Sync drive after each write. Can shorten lifespan for e.g. some flash drives.
async Sync drive asynchronously.
discard The equivalent of trim support on Linux.
exec Allow execution of binaries.
noexec Do not allow execution of binaries.
suid Follow SUID and SGID bits.
nosuid Do not follow SUID and SGID bits.
user Allow a user to mount the filesystem. Implies nodev, noexec, and nosuid options unless explicitly setting dev, exec, or suid respectively.
users Allow every user to mount the filesystem.
nouser Allow only "root" to mount the filesystem.

Mount options of already-mounted filesystems can be changed using remount option. For example, setting a filesystem on /dev/foo to be mounted as read-write can be achieved using:

root #mount -o remount,rw /dev/foo /dir

Tips

Mounting as non-superuser

According to man mount, only the superuser can mount filesystems. However, when /etc/fstab contains the user option on a line, any user will be capable of mounting the corresponding partition, device, drive, etc.

Mounting removable media

See the relevant section in the Removable media article.

Mounting Windows shares (CIFS)

Despite /etc/fstab entries, non-superuser mounts of Windows shares will fail (for security reasons). In the following example is found a fstab entry for Windows share; pay close attention to the cifs option:

FILE /etc/fstab
[...]
//server/folder /home/larry/winmount cifs noauto,user 0 0
[...]
user $mount /home/larry/winmount
This program is not installed setuid root -  "user" CIFS mounts not supported.

The solution is to use sudo mount /home/larry/winmount in combination with a corresponding entry in /etc/sudoers to allow passwordless mounting.

Warning
Be sure to understand the sudo configuration before editing the /etc/sudoers file!
FILE /etc/sudoers
[...]
larry    ALL = NOPASSWD: /bin/mount  /home/larry/winmount/, /bin/mount  /home/larry/winmount
larry    ALL = NOPASSWD: /bin/umount /home/larry/winmount/, /bin/umount /home/larry/winmount
[...]
