/etc/mtab lists currently mounted filesystems
/etc/fstab is a configuration file for mount containing instructions on
how to mount filesystems.

In my experience, it's been very standard across /etc/fstab, /etc/mtab and
of course, /proc/mounts since that's created by the kernel.

follow the conventions above =)
