Soft and hard mounting are two different options when mounting a file system in Linux. Soft mounting allows a file system to be mounted even if it's not cleanly unmounted or there's an error during the mount process. In such cases, the mount will be remounted read-only. Hard mounting, on the other hand, refuses to mount if the file system is not cleanly unmounted and reports an error.nnBy default, Linux uses soft mounting.
