Today I learned that on a modern #Linux system powered bu #systemd, in my case #Debian, after I modified /etc/fstab, simply mount -a WILL NOT work. I had to systemctl daemon-reload and then mount. I miss the old behavior, and I do not understand why I had to systemctl ...  This is like ifconfig to ip, wlan0 to wlpblablablah which I can never remember ...

@kaixin ....like netstat to ss ("ss"!!!? Really???).

(Iirc, this daemon-reload extra step has been default behavior in debian for the past couple of releases or so...)
