Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: mountall

The manual page of fstab says: "The order of records in fstab is important 
because fsck(8), mount(8), and umount(8) sequentially iterate through fstab 
doing their thing."
But if the contents of the /etc/fstab file are:
/dev/sda2       /.snapshot/home         ext4    ro                              
                0       0
none            /.snapshot/home_ram     tmpfs   defaults                        
                0       0
none            /home                   aufs    
br=/.snapshot/home_ram:/.snapshot/home=ro       0       0
mountall mounts first the virtual file systems (tmpfs and aufs) and after that 
mounts the first one which is incorrect and leads to an undesired result.

Bug found on package mountall (dpkg -l mountall -> version=0.1.6,
mountall --version -> 0.1.0), on karmic alpha-6.
