[Bug 286759] New: boot.rootfsck remounts unneededly
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=286759 Summary: boot.rootfsck remounts unneededly Product: openSUSE 10.3 Version: Alpha 5 Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Basesystem AssignedTo: ro@novell.com ReportedBy: coolo@novell.com QAContact: qa@suse.de CC: hare@novell.com, olh@novell.com Found By: --- boot.rootfsck remounts the / partion without any need to do so # remount in any case to apply additional options like xattr mount -n -o remount,rw / The / partion leaves the initrd mounted rw and with the correct options. And this very remount breaks fcache support as it ends and restarts priming. It should just go. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Might have to check first ... -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

The remount is a real problem though. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

But these options are for some reason not in /proc/mounts but only in /etc/mtab - which you can't rely on during booting. BTW: the ro cmdline parameter should mount the root file system read only and afaik the initrd takes care of this. And I'm sure the rootfsck script should overwrite this -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
