Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: mountall

Mountall tries to mount single elements of a RAID partition. Mountall
should read the partiton table to find out if the RAID flag is set
before trying to mount a partition.

Example:
FAT on a RAID 0 on /dev/sda1 and /dev/sdb1. /dev/sda1 will have a valid FAT 
header as the first 64k (Or what ever the RAID is set to) is present. Mountall 
tries to mount and fails, this is non destructive but unnesasery. Instead 
mountall could read the partition table on both /dev/sda and /dev/sdb and 
ignore the two partitions.

** Affects: mountall (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
