Common for all types of file system are the options ``noauto''
(do not mount when "mount -a" is given, e.g., at boot time), ``user''
(allow a user to mount), and ``owner''
-(allow device owner to mount). For more details, see
+(allow device owner to mount), and ``_netdev'' (device requires network
+to be available).
+The ``owner'' and ``_netdev'' options are Linux-specific.
+For more details, see
