The order of records in *fstab* is important because *fsck*(8), *mount*(8), and *umount*(8) sequentially iterate through *fstab* doing their thing. + +Each filesystem is described on a separate line. Fields on each line are separated by tabs or spaces. Lines starting with '#' are comments. Blank lines are ignored. + +The following is a typical example of an *fstab* entry: + +.... +LABEL=t-home2 /home ext4 defaults,auto_da_alloc 0 2 +.... + +=== The first field (_fs_spec_). + +This field describes the block special device, remote filesystem or filesystem image for loop device to be mounted or swap file or swap partition to be enabled. + +For ordinary mounts, it will hold (a link to) a block special device node (as created by *mknod*(2)) for the device to be mounted, like _/dev/cdrom_ or _/dev/sdb7_. For NFS mounts, this field is _:_, e.g., _knuth.aeb.nl:/_. For filesystems with no storage, any string can be used, and will show up in *df*(1) output, for example. Typical usage is _proc_ for *procfs*; _mem_, _none_, or _tmpfs_ for *tmpfs*. Other special filesystems, like *udev* and *sysfs*, are typically not listed in *fstab*. + +LABEL=
