I'm having trouble mounting an NFS filesystem read-write from an initrd
script.
We're booting the EL5 kernel using an ext2-based initrd image, which
runs a script which mounts various filesystems from a server, and some
are read-write filesystems.
However, even though the script issues a command such as:
mount -o nfsvers=3,tcp,nolock,rw <server-ip>:<pathname> /mnt
when I do a 'mount' command, to see what's mounted, that filesystem
shows up as read-only.
Using strace to see what's being passed to the kernel shows the correct
path and mountpoint, and mountoptions of 0, which means read-write (1 is
read-only).
BTW: SELinux is disabled, and the read-write mount of the same
filesystem works fine on a system that I installed from CD. It's just
from within the initrd that it doesn't work, and of course this used to
work with ELAS3 and ELAS4.
I'd appreciate it if anybody has any suggestions.
Thanks,
Chris
