findmnt: Search for a device.
$ findmnt ${-dev-sdb1}
try on your machine
The command "findmnt ${-dev-sdb1}" is used to find the mount point (the location where a file system is mounted) of a specific device, in this case, the device "/dev/sdb1".
Here's a breakdown of the command:
-
"${-dev-sdb1}": This syntax is used for variable substitution in the command line. It is likely that the command is intended to be written as "findmnt /dev/sdb1" instead. "/dev/sdb1" represents the device name or path that the command is searching for.
-
"findmnt": This is the command itself, used to find mount points for devices.
When executed, this command will search for the mount point of the "/dev/sdb1" device and display the details about the file system it is mounted on.
