  Modified:    sbin/mount  mount.8 mount.c
  Log:
  I have added a new option -p to the mount command. This was
  inspired by SunOS version of mount which uses option -p to
  indicate that the mount information should be printed in fstab
  format.
  This is a neat way to create a new fstab file to use later when
  one has modified the mount points or mount options or added or
  removed mount some mount points. You just type
  
  	mount -p > /etc/fstab.new
  
  and there is your new fstab file ready to be used though you
  will of course have to add any necessary noauto flags manually.
  
  [Committers note:  This also seems to do the wrong thing for AMD
   mounts, but in the more average case this is a nifty feature nonetheless
   and one can always edit the bogus entries out]
