Command: gio mount [OPTION...] [LOCATION...]
About
Provides commandline access to various aspects of GIO’s mounting functionality.
Mounting refers to the traditional concept of arranging multiple file systems and devices in a single tree, rooted at /. Classical mounting happens in the kernel and is controlled by the mount utility. GIO expands this concept by introducing mount daemons that can make file systems available to GIO applications without kernel involvement.
GIO mounts can require authentication, and the mount command may ask for user IDs, passwords, and so on, when required.
