Description Mobeen Azhar 2011-01-23 21:07:53 UTC
User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 5.1; rv:2.0b9) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/4.0b9

After installing kernel 2.6.37 (kernel-default-2.6.37-6.1.i586) from the Tumbleweed repository, /etc/mtab no longer contains entries for all mounted file systems - including /


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Upgrade kernel by installing kernel-default-2.6.37-6.1.i586
2.Reboot
3.execute mount
Actual Results:  
Some mounted file systems are missing in the output of mount, df etc.  A look at /etc/mtab reveals that /etc/mtab does not contain entries for them.  /proc/mounts does contains entries for them (though some of the entries in /proc/mounts are marked ro when in reality they are rw, such as /proc)

Expected Results:  
All mounted file systems should be reflected properly in /etc/mtab

You are talking about a 11.4 kernel, this isn't a 11.3 problem the bug was opened against -> correcting product.

Note that this one is about tumbleweed which is 11.3 in fact... The sr:
  submit:   Base:System/aaa_base(r200) -> openSUSE:Tumbleweed/aaa_base
