MOUNTALL(1M)        RISC/os Reference Manual         MOUNTALL(1M)



NAME
     mountall, umountall - mount, unmount multiple file systems

SYNOPSIS
     /etc/mountall
     /etc/umountall [-k]

DESCRIPTION
     These commands may be  executed only by the super-user.

     mountall is used to mount file systems according to
     /etc/fstab.

     All dirty file systems are first checked in parallel,
     depending on priorities set in fstab(4).  Before the  local
     file systems are recursively mounted, they are checked using
     fsstat(1M), embedded in fsck, to see if they appear mount-
     able.  If a file system does not appear mountable, it is
     checked, using fsck(1M), before the mount is attempted.  Any
     failure to mount a specific point will disallow mounts under
     that point.

     By default, any fsck failure while booting to multi-user
     will shutdown the system to single-user.  However, if the
     file /etc/bad_boot.conf exists, it will be executed instead.
     Upon exiting this file with a non-zero status, local file
     systems will be mounted.

     umountall causes all mounted file systems except root to be
     unmounted.  The -k option sends a SIGKILL signal, via
     fuser(1M), to processes that have files open.

FILES
     /etc/fstab     Even though mountall is a SVR3 command, it
                    must adhere to a BSD-style fstab(4) because
                    of RISC/os's BSD file system.
     /etc/bad_boot.conf

SEE ALSO
     fsck(1M), fsstat(1M), fuser(1M), mount(1M).
     sysadm(1) in the User's Reference Manual.
     signal(2), fstab(4) in the Programmer's Reference Manual.

DIAGNOSTICS
     No fsck messages are printed if the file systems are mount-
     able and clean.  When file systems are mounted, mount mes-
     sages will always be printed.

     Error and warning messages come from fsck(1M), fsck.ffs(1M),
     fsstat(1M), and mount(1M).
