FINDMNT(8)FINDMNT(8)NAMEfindmnt - find a filesystem
SYNOPSISfindmnt [options]
findmnt [options] device|mountpoint
findmnt [options] [--source] device [--target] mountpoint
DESCRIPTIONfindmnt will list all mounted filesytems or search for a filesystem.
The findmnt command is able to search in /etc/fstab, /etc/fstab.d,
/etc/mtab or /proc/self/mountinfo. If device or mountpoint is not
given, all filesystems are shown.
The command prints all mounted filesystems in the tree-like format by
default.
OPTIONS-h, --help
Print help and exit.
-s, --fstab
Search in /etc/fstab and /etc/fstab.d. The output is in the
list format (see --list).
-m, --mtab
Search in /etc/mtab. The output is in the list format (see
--list).
-k, --kernel
Search in /proc/self/mountinfo. The output is in the tree-like
format. This is the default.
-c, --canonicalize
Canonicalize all printed paths.
-d, --direction word
The search direction - forward or backward.
-e, --evaluate
Convert all tags (LABEL or UUID) to the device names.
-f, --first-only
Print the first matching filesystem only.
-i, --invert
Invert the sense of matching.
-l, --list
Use the list output format. This output format is automatically
enabled if the output is restricted by -t, -O, -S or -T option
and the option --submounts is not used.
-v, --nofsroot
Do not print a [/dir] in the SOURCE column for bind-mounts or
btrfs subvolumes.
-n, --noheadings
Do not print a header line.
-u, --notruncate
Do not truncate text in columns. The default is to not truncate
the TARGET, SOURCE, UUID and LABEL columns. This option dis‐
ables text truncation also in all other columns.
-O, --options list
Used to limit the set of printed filesystems. More than one
option may be specified in a comma-separated list. The -t and
-O options are cumulative in effect. It is different from -t in
that each option is matched exactly; a leading no at the begin‐
ning of one option does not negate the rest. For more details
see mount(8).
-o, --output list
Define output columns. Currently supported are SOURCE, TARGET,
FSTYPE, OPTIONS, VFS-OPTIONS, FS-OPTIONS, LABEL and UUID. The
TARGET column contains tree formatting if the --list or --raw
options are not specified.
-r, --raw
Use raw output format.
-a, --ascii
Use ascii characters for tree formatting.
-t, --types list
Used to limit the set of printed filesystems. More than one
type may be specified in a comma-separated list. The list of
filesystem types can be prefixed with no to specify the filesys‐
tem types on which no action should be taken. For more details
see mount(8).
-R, --submounts
Print recursively all submounts for the selected filesystems.
The restrictions defined by options -t, -O, -S, -T and --direc‐
tion are not applied to submounts. All submounts are always
printed in tree-like order. The option enables the tree-like
output format by default. This option has no effect for --mtab
or --fstab.
-S, --source spec
Explicitly define the mount source. Supported are device,
LABEL= or UUID=.
-T, --target dir
Explicitly define the mount target (mountpoint directory).
EXAMPLESfindmnt--fstab -t nfs
Prints all nfs filesystems defined in /etc/fstab.
findmnt--fstab /mnt/foo
Prints all /etc/fstab filesystems where the mountpoint directory
is /mnt/foo. It also prints bind mounts where /mnt/foo is a
source.
findmnt--fstab --target /mnt/foo
Prints all /etc/fstab filesystems where the mountpoint directory
is /mnt/foo.
findmnt--fstab --evaluate
Prints all /etc/fstab filesystems and converts LABEL= and UUID=
tags to the real device names.
findmnt-n --raw --evaluate --output=target LABEL=/boot
Prints only the mountpoint where the filesystem with label
"/boot" is mounted.
