Depending upon the distribution you have, it may be
supported as a read-only file system (so that you can mount and copy files from it).
affs File system used with Amiga computers.
ufs File system popular on Sun Microsystems operating systems (that is, Solaris and
SunOS).
If you want to use a file system type that is not currently shown as available on your system (when
you type cat /proc/filesystems), try using modprobe to load the module for that file systems.
For example, modprobe ufs adds the UFS file system type to the running kernel. Type man fs to
see descriptions of Linux file systems.
Using the fstab File to Define Mountable File Systems
The hard disk partitions on your local computer and the remote file systems you use every day are
probably set up to automatically mount when you boot Linux. The /etc/fstab file contains definitions
for each partition, along with options describing how the partition is mounted. Here??™s an
example of an /etc/fstab file:
LABEL=/ / ext3 defaults 1 1
LABEL=/boot /boot ext3 defaults 1 2
/dev/devpts /dev/pts devpts gid=5,mode=620 0 0
/dev/shm /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0
/dev/proc /proc proc defaults 0 0
/dev/sys /sys sysfs defaults 0 0
/dev/sda5 swap swap defaults 0 0
/dev/cdrom /media/cdrecorder udf,iso9660 exec,noauto,managed 0 0
/dev/sda1 /mnt/win vfat noauto 0 0
/dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy auto noauto,owner 0 0
All partitions listed in this file are mounted at boot time, except for those set to noauto in the
fourth field.
