Even if the filesystem isn't mounted your check of it (ls -ltr) will succeed. In other words, the mount *point* probably exists regardless of whether the filesystem is mounted or not.

If you want to find out whether all the filesystems in fstab are mounted, compare the output of df with the filesystems in fstab.

Depending on which OS you are using you can use a 'readonly' fsck to check the filesystem itself.

local-filesystems

local-filesystems(7)					 Miscellaneous Information Manual				      local-filesystems(7)

NAME

       local-filesystems - event signalling that local filesystems have been mounted

SYNOPSIS

       local-filesystems [ENV]...

DESCRIPTION

       The  local-filesystems  event  is generated by the mountall(8) daemon after it has mounted all local filesystems listed in fstab(5).  moun-
       tall(8) emits this event as an informational signal, services and tasks started or stopped by this event will do so in parallel with  other
       activity.

       This event is typically used by services that must be started in order for remote filesystems, if any, to be activated.	Remember that some
       users may not consider it wrong to place /usr on a remote filesystem.  For most normal services the filesystem(7) event is sufficient.

       This event will never occur before the virtual-filesystems(7) event.

EXAMPLE

       A service that wishes to be running once local filesystems are mounted might use:

	      start on local-filesystems

SEE ALSO

       mounting(7) mounted(7) virtual-filesystems(7) remote-filesystems(7) all-swaps(7) filesystem(7)
