System Tasks

List devices

To list mounted devices, run the following command in a terminal:
```
mount
```
The listing shows the device (such as a hard disk partition), the mount point (where you access the files), the filesystem type, and the mount options.

This example shows the hda2 hard disk partition mounted as '/', with the filesystem type ext3. The partition is mounted with two options: one to allow the device to be read from and written to and the other to remount the device as read-only in the event of any errors.
```
/dev/hda2 on / type ext3 (rw,errors=remount-ro)
```
To list PCI devices:
```
lspci
```
To list USB devices:
```
lsusb
```
