Summary: /proc and /sys (and perhaps others) mount options in
fstab not honored
Product: openSUSE 10.3
Version: Alpha 1plus
Platform: Other
OS/Version: Other
Status: NEW
Severity: Normal
Priority: P5 - None
Component: Basesystem
AssignedTo: ro@xxxxxxxxxx
ReportedBy: meissner@xxxxxxxxxx
QAContact: qa@xxxxxxx
CC: mkrapp@xxxxxxxxxx, security-team@xxxxxxx, mjo@xxxxxxx


A external customer tries to have his /proc and /sys mounted
nosuid,noexec. He added those options to his /etc/fstab file.

However on boot these options did not became active.

Reason for this is (I guess) that /proc and /sys are mounted
earlier by other methods which do not honor /etc/fstab (like initramfs and
similar).

I am not sure if we should fix this ... I am tending to "yes, fix".

One idea on how-to: remount /proc and /sys at the end of the
/etc/init.d/boot.* process, which would be just:

mount -o remount /proc
mount -o remount /sys
