The funny part is that the container user root isn't able to remount

Aus eGENTIC Systems wird Spark 5!

Vier Jahre nach der Übernahme durch die eGENTIC GmbH öffnen wir uns wieder mehr 
dem freien Markt. Wir positionieren uns als Partner des gehobenen Mittelstands 
für Web-Applikationen.
Ein Aufbruch in eine neue Ära unserer Geschäftsentwicklung, dokumentiert durch 
einen neuen Namen.

eGENTIC Systems becomes Spark 5!

In the past few years our work was mainly focused on business volume within the 
eGENTIC group. Now, four years after the integration, we want to explore free 
competition and tap new markets once again.
The new name reflects the beginning of a new era.
