Yes, thanks. /etc/mtab and /proc/mounts are also possible.

Ah that's right, I always forgot those. Let's say that typing "mount" requires less characters (but more resources to execute?)

I have an external USB storage device "permanently" mounted on a certain directory on my laptop, Sometimes the cable gets disconnected by mistake. It was a big pain to remount the device on the directory (because of "device busy") until I read this answer. Now I known to use mount --move olddir newdir. Thanks.
