AUTODISKMOUNT(8)

NAME
autodiskmount - fscks and mounts filesystems

SYNOPSIS
autodiskmount [-adv]

DESCRIPTION
autodiskmount fscks and mounts all recognized filesystems. These currently include the cd9660, cddafs, hfs, msdos, udf, and ufs filesystems.

autodiskmount also notifies subscriber services (Carbon, Cocoa applications) of the appearance of filesystems and arbitrates unrecognized filesystems and device subscriptions.

Options:

-a  Mount removable media also.

-d  Prints debugging information. Does not run autodiskmount as a daemon.

-v  Lists already mounted media, after performing mounts.

The file /etc/fstab is consulted for user-defined mount points, indexed by filesystem, in the mount point determination for a filesystem. Each filesystem can be identified by its UUID or by its label, using the constructs ``UUID'' or ``LABEL'', respectively. The UUID DCA19C980FD6A858 would be specified as ``UUID=DCA19C980FD6A858''. The label Volume Name would be specified as ``LABEL=Volume\040Name''.
