mount:tldr:7888a
mount: Mount a specific filesystem described in `/etc/fstab` (e.g. `/dev/sda1 /my_drive ext2 defaults 0 2`).
$ mount ${-my_drive}
try on your machine
The command "mount ${-my_drive}" is using shell syntax and consists of two parts: "mount" and "${-my_drive}".
-
"mount": This is the command used to mount a filesystem in a Linux or Unix system. It allows you to attach a storage device or a filesystem, making it accessible and available for use.
-
"${-my_drive}": This is a variable in the shell script that is being used as an argument to the "mount" command. The variable name is "-my_drive". The "$" symbol is used to reference the value stored in the variable.
In order to understand the purpose or outcome of this command, we would need more context about how the variable "-my_drive" is defined and what it contains.
