                     11: 
                     12: mount mounts  a file system  from the block  special file special
                     13: onto directory in  the system's directory hierarchy.  This opera-
                     14: tion makes  the root directory of the  mounted file system acces-
                     15: sible using the specified directory name.
                     16: 
                     17: If  the -r  option is  specified, the  file system  is read-only.
                     18: This  is useful  for preventing  inadvertent changes  to precious
                     19: file systems.  The system will not update information such as ac-
                     20: cess times if the -r option is used.
                     21: 
                     22: The -u option causes mount to write an entry into the mount table
                     23: file /etc/mtab  without actually  performing the mount.   This is
                     24: used to note the file system.
                     25: 
                     26: When invoked with no arguments, mount summarizes the mounted file
                     27: systems and where they attach.
                     28: 
                     29: The command umount unmounts a previously mounted file system.
                     30: 
                     31: The script  /bin/mount calls /etc/mount,  and provides convenient
