we both are partly correct, from "man mount":
" If no -t option is given, or if the auto type is specified,
mount will try to guess the desired type. Mount uses the blkid
or volume_id library for guessing the filesystem type; if that
does not turn up anything that looks familiar, mount will try to
read the file /etc/filesystems, or, if that does not exist,
/proc/filesystems. All of the filesystem types listed there
will be tried, except for those that are labeled "nodev" (e.g.,
devpts, proc and nfs). If /etc/filesystems ends in a line with
a single * only, mount will read /proc/filesystems afterwards.
