Supported File Systems on Linux Server

On the Linux server there is one file which stores all the type of file system that kernel on the server supports and the file is under directory /proc/ and the file name is “filesystems”

The output for the following command will be the types of file system that are supported by kernel on that server.
================================
[root@power ~]# cat /proc/filesystems
ext2
ext3
nodev rpc_pipefs
nodev autofs
nodev proc
nodev sysfs
nodev tmpfs
nodev devpts
nodev binfmt_misc
vfat
===================

If you see nodev in front of any file system, then that means the related file system is not associated with any physical device on the server.

As per the output for the cat command indicates one can mount any file system with ext2,ext3 or vfat options while mounting.
