Package: mount
Version: 2.11h-2
Severity: minor
Tags: patch
Moin Adrian,
the following situation: I am testing ext3, and I ran into problems with
specifying the right filesystem in fstab when testing kernels with and
without ext3 support.
- (1) If I specify "auto", it is ugly for / and filesystems mounted at
boottime since the init scripts try to invoke fsck.auto (which does
not exist).
- (2) When I specified "ext3", I worked fine with ext3-supporting kernel,
but failed to mount while booting with a kernel without ext3-support
- (3) When I specified "ext3,ext2", the non-ext3-kernels were able to mount,
but then there was the same problem as in the first situation.
So I hacked mount.c and made it include ext2 into the list of probed
filesystems if the user specified "ext3" only. Now, I can configure like
in the second situation and use both kernels without changes. You
probably want to include this patch into official package.
Gruss/Regards,
Eduard.

I'm going to go ahead and finally close this old bug out. If the init
scripts are still trying to run the wrong fsck when a list is given,
then file a bug against them. If you specify only one filesystem
type, then you expect mount to honor that and not try some other type.
