The inconsistancy happens for meon x86_64 too, and also on my ARM boxes. However I have never had any problem with this before and have never noticed it on any platform. There are some mailing list threads about people making mtab a symlink to /proc/mounts -- I haven't read them all, but if you haven't, it'd probably be worth a read -- this isn't a new thing! _______________________________________________ ARMedslack mailing list [email protected] http://lists.armedslack.org/mailman/listinfo/armedslack
