+
+                <para>A unit configuration file whose name ends in
+                .mount encodes information about a file system mount
+                point controlled and supervised by systemd.</para>
+
+                <para>This man page lists the configuration options
+                specific to this unit type. See
+                <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.unit</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>
+                for the common options of all unit configuration
+                files. The common configuration items are configured
+                in the generic [Unit] and [Install] sections. The
+                mount specific configuration options are configured
+                in the [Mount] section.</para>
+
+                <para>Additional options are listed in
+                <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.exec</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>.</para>
+
+                <para>Mount units must be named after the file paths
+                they reflect. Example: the mount point
+                <filename>/home/lennart</filename> must be configured
+                in a unit file
+                <filename>home-lennart.mount</filename>. For details
+                about the escaping logic used to convert a file system
+                path to a unit name see
+                <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.unit</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>.</para>

+                <title><filename>fstab</filename></title>
+
+                <para>Mount units may either be configured via unit
+                files, or via <filename>/etc/fstab</filename> (see
+                <citerefentry><refentrytitle>fstab</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>
+                for details).</para>
+
+                <para>When reading <filename>/etc/fstab</filename> a
+                few special mount options are understood by systemd
+                which influence how dependencies are created for mount
+                points from <filename>/etc/fstab</filename>. If
+                <option>comment=systemd.mount</option> is specified as
+                mount option then systemd will create a dependency of
+                type <option>Wants</option> from either
+                <filename>local-fs.target</filename> or
+                <filename>remote-fs.target</filename>, depending
+                whether the file system is local or remote. If
+                <option>comment=systemd.automount</option> is set, an
+                automount unit will be created for the file system. See
+                <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.automount</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>
+                for details.</para>
+
+                <para>If a mount point is configured in both
+                <filename>/etc/fstab</filename> and a unit file the
+                configuration in the latter takes precedence.</para>

+                <title>Options</title>
+
+                <para>Mount files must include a [Mount] section,
+                which carries information about the file system mount points it
+                supervises. A number of options that may be used in
+                this section are shared with other unit types. These
+                options are documented in
+                <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.exec</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>. The
+                options specific to the [Mount] section of service
+                units are the following:</para>
