NAME

mountall - Mount filesystems during boot

SYNOPSIS

mountall [OPTIONS]...

DESCRIPTION

mountall reads fstab(5) and calls fsck(8), mount(8) and swapon(8) in the correct order to mount filesystems once the underlying devices have been created by udevd(8)

This is a temporary tool until init(8) itself gains the necessary flexibility to perform this processing; you should not rely on its behaviour.
