Add a -o mountprog parameter to mount which explicitly allows
an alternative program to be used for mounting a file system.
Ideally, all file systems
should be converted to pass string arguments to nmount(), so that
/sbin/mount can handle them. However, certain file systems such as FUSE have
not done this, and want to have their own userland mount programs.
For example, to mount an NTFS file system with the FUSE NTFS driver:
mount -t ntfs -o mountprog=/usr/local/bin/ntfs-3g /dev/acd0 /mnt
or via an fstab entry:
/dev/acd0 /mnt ntfs ro,noauto,mountprog=/usr/local/bin/ntfs-3g 0 0
