NAME

7       kernel file systems

SYNOPSIS

10       systemd-remount-fs.service
11
12       /usr/lib/systemd/systemd-remount-fs
13

DESCRIPTION

15       systemd-remount-fs.service is an early boot service that applies mount
16       options listed in fstab(5), or gathered from the partition table (when
17       systemd-gpt-auto-generator(8) is active) to the root file system, the
18       /usr/ file system, and the kernel API file systems. This is required so
19       that the mount options of these file systems — which are pre-mounted by
20       the kernel, the initial RAM disk, container environments or system
21       manager code — are updated to those configured in /etc/fstab and the
22       other sources. This service ignores normal file systems and only
23       changes the root file system (i.e.  /), /usr/, and the virtual kernel
24       API file systems such as /proc/, /sys/ or /dev/. This service executes
25       no operation if no configuration is found (/etc/fstab does not exist or
26       lists no entries for the mentioned file systems, or the partition table
27       does not contain relevant entries).

30       Systems[1].

32       Note: systemd-remount-fs.service is usually pulled in by systemd-fstab-
33       generator(8), hence it is also affected by the kernel command line
34       option fstab=, which may be used to disable the generator. It may also
35       pulled in by systemd-gpt-auto-generator(8), which is affected by
36       systemd.gpt_auto and other options.
