Books for you

You would guess (correctly)
that all the items included in the mount syntax discussed earlier appear here. In order,
they would be File system, Mount Point, and Type. The other items are various options
that you did not set in the earlier simple example of the mount command.
Mounting a File System 385
18
The fourth field indicates the mount options for that file system, separated by commas.
For example, the Windows drive, /dev/sda1, mounts as read-only (ro) and all users can
mount the drive. If the user flag is not set, only Root can mount the file system.
/dev/_cdrecorder includes the exec option, which allows you to run binaries from the
CD drive. The / (Root) partition uses an Access Control List (ACL) to determine whether
binaries can be executed. This means permissions are set at a lower, more fine-grained
level than just allowing anyone with access to the partition to execute programs.
The other options listed here are generally specific to that file system. To see all the
options that can be used here, see the mount and fstab man pages.
