How to determine partition type?


Hi there,

I have the following question - is there any way (command, config file, etc.) in which you can determine on what kind of partition (ext2, ext3, NFS, etc.) a given directory is mounted on? (For example '/ '). Thank you.

Either "mount" or "fdisk -l" will give you all you need to know!

Please do not post the same thread in more than one forum. Picking the most relevant forum and posting it once there makes it easier for other members to help you and keeps the discussion all in one place.
