genfstab

Arch Linux install script to generate output suitable for addition to an fstab file.

• Display an fstab compatible output based on a volume label:

genfstab -L {path/to/mount_point}

• Display an fstab compatible output based on a volume UUID:

genfstab -U {path/to/mount_point}

• A usual way to generate an fstab file, requires root permissions:

genfstab -U {/mnt} >> {/mnt/etc/fstab}

• Append a volume into an fstab file to mount it automatically:

genfstab -U {path/to/mount_point} | sudo tee -a /etc/fstab
