/etc/fstab : filesystem table

Public domain


snip from mount manual

defaults : rw, suid, dev, exec, auto, nouser, and async.
rw : Mount the filesystem read-write.
sync : All I/O to the filesystem should be done synchronously. In case of media with limited number of write cycles (e.g. some flash drives) "sync" may cause life-cycle shortening.
user : Allow an ordinary user to mount the filesystem.
auto : Can be mounted with the -a option.
exec : Permit execution of binaries.
dev : Interpret character or block special devices on the filesystem.
suid : Allow set-user-identifier or set-group-identifier bits to take effect.
