2.2.2. Specifying the Mount Options
To specify additional mount options, use the command in the following form:
mount-ooptions
When supplying multiple options, do not insert a space after a comma, or
mount will incorrectly interpret the values following spaces as additional parameters.
Table 2.2, “Common Mount Options” provides a list of common mount options. For a complete list of all available options, consult the relevant manual page as referred to in Section 2.4.1, “Installed Documentation”.

|---|---|
async | Allows the asynchronous input/output operations on the file system. |
auto | Allows the file system to be mounted automatically using the mount -a command. |

noauto | Disallows the automatic mount of the file system using the mount -a command. |
noexec | Disallows the execution of binary files on the particular file system. |

See Example 2.3, “Mounting an ISO Image” for an example usage.
Example 2.3. Mounting an ISO Image
An ISO image (or a disk image in general) can be mounted by using the loop device. Assuming that the ISO image of the Fedora 14 installation disc is present in the current working directory and that the
/media/cdrom/ directory exists, you can mount the image to this directory by running the following command as root:
~]# mount -o ro,loop Fedora-14-x86_64-Live-Desktop.iso /media/cdrom
Note that ISO 9660 is by design a read-only file system.
