mount¶

mount is used to mount filesystems to a specified directory in the file system hierarchy. This tool is fundamental for accessing the contents of different storage devices or filesystem images within the system’s directory structure.

Usage¶

mount <source> <target> <fstype> <mode> [data]

<source>: Specifies the device or filesystem image to be mounted.
<target>: The directory onto which the filesystem will be mounted. This directory must already exist.
<fstype>: The type of filesystem to be mounted.
<mode>: Mount flags specified as a numerical value, which control various mount options.
[data]: Optional. Filesystem-specific data that may be required for some types of mounts, such as mount options.
