Yes I have removed the /selinux/* from the image however I'm waiting for 
some new
machines to try again. 

 I agree that adding the patterns would be the fast solution.Of course the 
best solution
 would be to have mount/mtab show all mounts ... I could open a ticket 
with RH however
 I'm not sure I would get too far.

Hi all,

I think that we should add some common unwanted patters to the
exclusions automatically made by systemimager during image retrieval by
si_getimage.

In some recent distributions some pseudo-filesystem are not reported
with mount. On the other looking in /proc/mounts doesn't resolve,
because there are also the filesystems mounted *under* others (usually
rootfs, initramfs, etc).

Here is a list of patterns that we could always exclude:

# selinux stuff
/selinux/*
# eventfs in SuSE
/lib/klibc/events/*
# mounted media devices not reported by mount
/media/*
# NFS stuff
/var/lib/nfs/*
# LVM caches and backups (automatically re-created at the first boot)
/etc/lvm/.cache
/etc/lvm/backup/*
/etc/lvm/archive/*

What do you think? Do you know other patterns that should be
automatically excluded?

Regards,
-Andrea

PS for David: have you tried to remove /selinux/* from your image and
try to repeat the installation? this is equivalent to run si_getimage
with --exclude '/selinux/*'.
