Description

       genfstab helps fill in an fstab file by autodetecting all the current mounts below a given mountpoint and
       printing them in fstab-compatible format to standard output. It can be used to persist a manually mounted
       filesystem hierarchy and is often used during the initial install and configuration of an OS.
