It's nothing to worry about. Userspace tries to remount the hostfs read-only at shutdown. But in a normal directory-backed container, allowing it to do so would mean that that your host rootfs could end up being remounted read-only. That's undesirable :) -serge ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Precog is a next-generation analytics platform capable of advanced analytics on semi-structured data.
