A sign that fstab(5) could use some clarifications. :) One can sort of make the necessary inferences, but explicit text (and examples) are better. Can someone, please, tweak fstab(5) to explicitly say that some options from the options column are processed by the mount(8) frontend itself and the rest is passed to the appropriate mount program (where swapctl(8) is the "mount" program for swaps) via -o. We already have the text that explains fs_type, though that could use a bit of copyediting too. Don't worry about the markup too much, I'll clean it up if necessary. -uwe
