kdb-fstab(1) -- Create a new fstab entry

SYNOPSIS

kdb fstab <path> <fs_spec> <fs_file> <fs_vfstype> <fs_mntops>

Where path is the path where the created keys should be stored in the key database. The other arguments are as described in fstab(5).

DESCRIPTION

This command is used to create a new fstab entry.
Due to the unique format of fstab entries, it is not possible to set individual elements of new fstab entries.
This command is used to gather all the data needed to create a single fstab entry in order to bypass the issue of not being able to set individual elements.
This command will create the new entry with a name of ZZZNewFstabName which should then automatically be renamed by the fstab plugin.

OPTIONS

  • -H, --help: Show the man page.
  • -V, --version: Print version info.
  • -p, --profile <profile>: Use a different kdb profile.
  • -C, --color <when>: Print never/auto(default)/always colored output.
  • -v, --verbose: Explain what is happening.

EXAMPLES

To create an fstab entry to mount dev/sdb1 to /media/external stored in the key system/fstab/sdb1:
kdb fstab system/fstab/sdb1 /dev/sdb1 /media/external ext4 errors=remount-ro
