In general, the /etc/fstab entries are for static (fixed) mount
points, such as you might use if you created your own entries,
in /mnt or /media or actaually anywhere you wanted to.. The
other mounts are created on the fly by the OS when it reads the
partitions or devices, as you will notice for usb flash drives
--most other mounts are created under /media/.. (the mount point
used by the device) --in the file manager you use, you should
see the mounted device or partition being listed Linux uses file
locations for everything, that is unlike windows which uses
drive letters then a location, Linux uses /, and puts everything
else under that mount point (/, being the root of the file
system) --so you have /home/username (your logged in user) and
so on..https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filesyste ... y_Standardhtt
