Hi, bind mounts seem not to work as expected on OpenSUSE 11.4. E.g: $ mount /home /mnt -o bind $ mount | grep mnt /dev/sda1 on /mnt type ext3 (rw,relatime,errors=continue,user_xattr,acl,commit=600,barrier=0,data=ordered) $ mount | grep sda1 /dev/sda1 on / type ext3 (rw,relatime,errors=continue,user_xattr,acl,commit=600,barrier=0,data=ordered) /dev/sda1 on /mnt type ext3 (rw,relatime,errors=continue,user_xattr,acl,commit=600,barrier=0,data=ordered) mount shows me the for both / and /mnt /dev/sda1 as device. The expected output is: /home on /mnt type none (rw,bind) The read-only bind mount also does not work. $ mount -o bind,ro /home /mnt mount: warning: /mnt seems to be mounted read-write. $ mount | grep mnt /dev/sda1 on /mnt type ext3 (rw,relatime,errors=continue,user_xattr,acl,commit=600,barrier=0,data=ordered) I can reproduce this on OpenSUSE 11.4 using kernel-desktop-2.6.37.1-1.2.2.i586, kernel-vanilla-2.6.37.1-1.2.2.i586 and kernel-vanilla-2.6.37.3-16.1.i586 (from tumbleweed repo) But, on a CentOS 5.5 box with a hand compiled 2.6.37.3 kernel everything works as expected. Now I'm confused, is this a OpenSUSE or a kernel issue? Any ideas? -- Thanks, //richard -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kernel+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kernel+help@opensuse.org
