Title:
  man page for mount is incorrect about the -a flag

Status in util-linux package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: man-db

  lsb-release: Description:	Ubuntu 10.04 LTS
                      Release:	10.04
  src-pkg: mount
  src-pkg-version: 2.17.2-0ubuntu1

  explanation in the manpage of mount(8) is the following:
    Mount all filesystems (of the given types) mentioned in fstab.
  I would propose to change it to 
    Mount all filesystems (of the given types) mentioned in fstab that should be mounted at boot.
  To denote that some filesystems in fstab are not mounted with the -a flag (e.g. ones with the option noauto specified)
