This is presumably because the rootfs is mounted by the initramfs, while everything else is mounted by init scripts using regular mount(8). Note that the extra detail is in general an improvement--mtab previously excluded information such as some mount options. I would suggest identifying /why/ the rootfs was mounted recording the long UUID. Candidates are: - initramfs mount command line - initramfs busymox mount binary - initramfs /dev [but should be udev] Should be fairly simple to address. Note that this is not a bug in initscripts--it's simply reporting what's really there, rather than hiding the real situation as before. I would suggest reassigning to the appropriate package once this has been identified. Regards, Roger -- .''`.
