You may find findmnt provides a more digestible list of mounted file systems on modern Fedora boxes. It will search fstab, mtab or /proc/self/mountinfo and report the file systems it finds in a variety of formats. On a simple vm with little in /etc/fstab mount prints: http://fpaste.org/H0kf/ Whereas findmnt shows me: http://fpaste.org/z6f4/ If I only care about things specified in /etc/fstab: # findmnt -s TARGET SOURCE FSTYPE OPTIONS / /dev/mapper/vg_rawhide-lv_root ext4 defaults /boot UUID=765338a0-b8f7-44b6-9178-3143eb94a119 ext4 defaults swap /dev/mapper/vg_rawhide-lv_swap swap defaults Where is sda2 mounted?: http://fpaste.org/A6WZ/ What is mounted at /run?: http://fpaste.org/kiPH/ The command can also do more fancy things like poll a mount point for activity (mount, umount, remount etc) and resolving LABEL and UUID references in the fstab to the real device paths. More options and examples are available in the man page.
