Here’s a workaround if the df command takes too long to run.
This limits listing to local file systems only.
df -l |
df
Check Mounted File Systems
Check mounted file systems using df. Displaying different options.
df df -h df -Th |
To get rid tmpfs, run this.
df -Th| grep -Ev '(udev|tmpfs)' |
Determine USB Format Type
Here’s how to determine what type of USB format a thumb drive is in Linux.
- df -Th (shows the file system type)
- lsblk (shows the block devices)
- lsusb (show usb ports and devices)
- fdisk -l (displays the USB format type)
To display, use “fdisk -l” to display either NTFS, FAT32 or exFAT32.
