How can I know if a partition is mounted or unmounted?
You can also use df
, which will give you a nicer printout and show the disk usage of the mounted file systems:
$ df -h
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/sda3 27G 8.6G 17G 35% /
dev 2.0G 0 2.0G 0% /dev
run 2.0G 488K 2.0G 1% /run
tmpfs 2.0G 456K 2.0G 1% /dev/shm
tmpfs 2.0G 0 2.0G 0% /sys/fs/cgroup
tmpfs 2.0G 738M 1.3G 38% /tmp
/dev/sdb2 715G 515G 164G 76% /home
tmpfs 396M 4.0K 396M 1% /run/user/1000
The mount
command is the usual way. On Linux, you can also check /etc/mtab, or /proc/mounts.
lsblk
is a nice way for humans to see devices and mount-points. See also this answer.
$ lsblk

findmnt
is useful for scripting or to query a specific device:
$ findmnt /dev/sde1
TARGET SOURCE FSTYPE OPTIONS
/mnt/dataC /dev/sde1 xfs rw,relatime,attr2,inode64,noquota
