If you mean mount with no arguments, all this does is to read /etc/mtab, and /etc/mtab is maintained by mount. -- James Cameron http://quozl.linux.org.au/ ___ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel

I've generated an image with the fix suggested in 11558 and the resulting image displays ext4 when viewing mount's output. Is this a bug in mount?

Editing /etc/fstab on a laptop and comparing dmesg between boots shows no change to how the ext4 filesystem is mounted. I suggest that /etc/mtab is created from /etc/fstab, and the root filesystem was mounted by initrd before /etc/fstab is available, and that /etc/fstab is ineffective. -- James Cameron http://quozl.linux.org.au/ ___ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel

what is the root filesystem mounted as??
Hi All, While testing the latest images for OLPC-AU, we've discovered that the root filesystem is being mounted as ext3. I'm wounder if someone with os883 installed could check what / is mounted as, without me having to install the image. Thanks in advance, Jerry ___ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel
