[ale] mtab inconsistancies

[Doug McNash]

Speaking of mtab...

Has anyone seen this and know what could cause it and better how to prevent it? (make careful not of the RO vs RW atributes)

mount reports
/dev/hda2 on /var type xfs (ro)

cat /etc/mtab and cat /proc/mounts report
/dev/hda2 /var xfs rw 0 0

(results above are simulated)

The mount is no longer writable until a mount -o remount,rw.
Also the mount was recently remounted thru NFS on a different mount point. Two other mounts are unaffected.

I'm baffled.
