AUTODISKMOUNT(8)            System Manager's Manual           AUTODISKMOUNT(8)

NAME
     autodiskmount - fscks and mounts filesystems

SYNOPSIS
     autodiskmount [-adv]

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

     autodiskmount also notifies subscriber services (Carbon, Cocoa applica-
     tions) 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 con-
     structs ``UUID'' or ``LABEL'', respectively.  The UUID DCA19C980FD6A858
     would be specified as ``UUID=DCA19C980FD6A858''.  The label Volume Name
     would be specified as ``LABEL=Volume\040Name''.

FILES
     /etc/fstab  filesystem table
