In computers, to mount is to make a group of files in a
file system structure accessible to a user or user group.
In some usages, it means to make a device physically
accessible.
In a UNIX environment, the mount command attaches discs, or
directories logically rather than physically. The Unix
mount command makes a directory accessible by attaching a
root directory of one file system to another directory,
which makes all the file systems usable as if they were
subdirectories of the file system they are attached to.
Unix recognizes devices by their location, as compared to
Windows, which recognizes them by their names (C: drive,
for example).
Command Usage example:
$ mount /dev/hda1 /mnt/temp
