automatic
Automatically mounts a file system when the system is started. Unlike the true value, filesystems which are mounted with the automatic value are not mounted with the mount all command or unmounted with the unmount all command. By default, the '/', '/usr', '/var', and '/tmp' filesystems use the automatic value.
Still not clear with automatic. So how come it mounted and unmounted? I think automatic only uses for system and we should not touch. And other file systems is manipulated by us with true/false.

before proceeding with mounting the filesystem.
The DEVICE, MOUNTPOINT, TYPE and OPTIONS environment variables contain the values of the fstab(5) fields for this mountpoint.
