Package: mount, umount, udev, kernel-2.6.32-5-686 Distribution: Debian 6.0.2.1-i386-DVD, Updated to Debian 6.0.3-i386-DVD, Using Debian 6.0.3-i386-Update-DVD-Volumes 1 and 2
Hardware: MSI MS-7108 Motherboard with Intel Pentium 4, LGA 775, 3.0 GHz, Dual Processor CPU, Intel 848P, ICH5, 2 GB of 400 MHz DDR SDRAM, Floppy drive, 8 USB 2.0 ports (USB 1.1 compatible) Files: <sys/mount.h> Follow-up II: I have written a short "C" program to test the system function "mount" (Manual section 2) to compare its behavior with the behavior of the system command "mount" (Manual section 8). The system function "mount" (Manual section 2) also fails to mount /dev/fd0 ( a correctly functioning floppy drive with a correctly formatted floppy in it) in exactly the same manner as that of the system command "mount" (Manual section 8), as I have shown in my message containing the bug #648570. During the compilation of this code, I have also found out that the "mount" flags MS_RELATIME and MS_STRICTATIME are not defined in the header file <sys/mount.h> despite the statements in the manual page for the system function "mount" (Manual section 2). It seems that an old version of the <sys/mount.h> (circa 2004, well before kernel 2.6.32) has been included in the Debian 6.0.3 distribution. -- Yekta Yekta Gursel, Ph. D.
