i never found the problem! even with Jim's help ;-)
the problem was happening *only* with the mount program embedded in busybox!
dont know why since it works for many people...
i was obliged to replace the busyBox mount (in /opt/ltspby a static version of mount
from util-linux-2.11n package... and now it works!
ll /opt/ltsp/i386/bin/mount*
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 605781 ao� 27 16:30 /opt/ltsp/i386/bin/mount
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 7 ao� 28 12:04 /opt/ltsp/i386/bin/mount-old
-> busybox
if you find the real problem, please let me know...
