Apologies if this gets sent out twice, I haven't seen it appear on the list yet.
Erik,
Bummer, thought I found a bug.
mtab seems to be behaving fine. It's simply a representation of what's
currently mounted?
[root@thisbox log]# ls -l /etc/mtab

Oddly enough, I don't see / listed in the mtab. Not sure if that's any
kind of indication. Otherwise, looks normal to me.
