how about "mount" command?

[thang@pissboy thang]$ mount
/dev/hda5 on / type xfs (rw)
none on /proc type proc (rw)
/dev/hda6 on /xfs type xfs (rw)
/dev/hda3 on /reiser type reiserfs (rw)
/dev/hda1 on /win type vfat (rw)
/dev/hda2 on /ext2 type ext2 (rw)
none on /dev/pts type devpts (rw,gid=5,mode=620)

cheers!
