NAME
mount - mount a filesystem
SYNOPSIS
mount
mount [-rwo] device dir
mount [--rw|--ro] device dir
DESCRIPTION
All files accessible in a Unix system are arranged in one big tree, the file hierarchy, rooted at /. These files can be spread out over several devices. The mmount command serves to attach the filesystem found at some address to the big file tree. Conversely, the umount command will detach it again. The filesystem is used to control how data is stored on the device.
The standard form of the mount command is:
mount device dir
This tells the kernel to attach the filesystem whose address begins with device at the directory dir.
