### Mounting a filesystem
We can now mount our filesystems. Whem we mount, we must specify where we want to mount _to_
We can now mount our filesystems. Whem we mount, we must specify the following criteria with the request:
* The name of the device we want to mount.
* This will be the name or the partition. However the names (`sda` etc) assigned by the OS can change. In these cases and with GPT-based partitions you can use the UUID.
* The filesystem type (optional)
* The **mount point**
* This is the place within the existing filesystem where you want to mount the partition.
* This can be anywhere, but in the example we will use the `/mnt' directory
* When you mount to a directory, this directory _becomes_ the disk you have mounted, you will not see it as a subdirectory within the the mount point, you will just see the contents of the disk itself
```bash
umount /dev/sda1
umount /dev/sda2
umount -t /dev/sda1 /mnt
```
