Because I missunderstood how that animal worked and simply removed the uhelper option, claiming it did nothing - which is wrong. I was not aware of that util-linux saved userspace only mount options in /run/mount/utab. I had never heard of utab nor read about it in any documentation. I saw the code passed over the uhelper=udisks option but i never saw the option enter /proc/mounts and wrongly assumed it had to do with hal compatibility or similar. https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=41142 As I can see there are 2 options: 1. patch udisks to support non-util-linux mount, in some kind of fallback fashion with reduced functionality (you will not be able to run "umount" from command line on mounts that was mounted from GUI) 2. patch busybox (compile time option which defaults to off) with support for userspace only mount options. Drawbacks with this you already know. There is no way to simple implement this without adding tons of code. (well, we could store the userspace options in a more sane format) I wonder what the BSDs do with this... -- Natanael Copa _______________________________________________ busybox mailing list [email protected] http://lists.busybox.net/mailman/listinfo/busybox
