All you have to do is use ncheck -s to check that no special
files or setuid files are used and performa a fsck. If both succeed,
the file system can be mounted by users. We have a file called /etc/fstypes
that contains the special file, size, interleave, and list of users allowed
to mount. Commands called initialize, attach, and detach allow users
to do this themselves. The only drawback is when they replace disks currently
mounted with a `devious' disk.
