Before you do that...  did you also edit /etc/mtab in addition to

Just a thought, since we are talking about separate partitions to mount.

Don't touch mtab.   mtab is auto-magically generated by mount.

Ah, okay.  Learn something every day.  I just remembered seeing mount
information in that file when I was reading it (although why I was doing that, I now have no idea). Guess this would explain why. Now if only I could remember why I had even read the file in the past. You don't edit it
during the original install process do you?

before you chroot, you copy /proc/mounts to it so your chrooted environment matches.....maybe that's where you saw it.
