       Before each file system is mounted, a check is done using (see fsck(1M)) to ensure that the file system is mountable.  If the  file  system
       is not mountable, it is repaired by before the mount is attempted.

       causes all mounted file systems except the non-removable file systems such as to be unmounted.
