Sorry, I should have written that I have performed tests:
Here is what I did:
test\ 1 /mnt/test\ 1 ufs ro 0 0
'test 2' '/mnt/test 2' ufs ro 0 0
"test 3" "/mnt/test 3" ufs ro 0 0
This test program
---> snip <--
#include <fstab.h>
int main (int argc, char *argv[]) {
struct fstab *f;
=09
while (0 !=3D (f =3D getfsent ())) {
printf ("%s %s %s\n", f->fs_spec, f->fs_file, f->fs_vfstype);
}
=09
return 0;
}
---> snip <--
Gives me the following output:
/dev/ad0s2b none swap
/dev/ad0s1a / ufs
/dev/ad0s2g /usr ufs
