If I'm reading this right the OS is rewriting your fstab file. Is that
correct? That's VERY interesting. Sure wish I could help but that's a new
one. What happens if you manually edit the supermount back into fstab for, say
a floppy drive?
/mnt/floppy /mnt/floppy supermount fs=vfat, /dev/fd0 0 0
After making this change, do a mount -a? Do you get the same error msg? Does
it overwrite your fstab changes?
