     24 .It Fl M
     25 Move a subtree to some other place.
     26 .It Fl R
     27 Remount a subtree and all possible submounts somewhere else (so that its
     28 contents are available in both places).
     29 .It Fl a

     31 .Pa /etc/fstab .
     32 .It Fl n
     33 Mount without writing in
     34 .Pa /etc/mtab .
     35 This is the default action.
     36 .It Fl o Ar options
     37 Specify a comma separated string of filesystem specific options.
     38 .It Fl t Ar fstype
     39 Set the filesystem type. More than one type may be specified in a comma
     40 separated list. The list of file system types can be prefixed with "no" to
     41 specify the file system types for which action should not be taken. For
     42 example, the
     43 .Nm
     44 command:
     45 .Bd -literal
     46 # mount -a -t nonfs,ext4
     47 
     48 .Ed
     49 mounts all file systems except those of type NFS and EXT4.
     50 .Nm
     51 will attempt to execute a program in your
     52 .Ev PATH
     53 mount.XXX where XXX is replaced by the type name. For example, NFS file
     54 systems are mounted by the program
     55 .Pa mount.nfs .
