About sending in patches: Yes, I want to do that:-) The problem is that I start modifying and only when I am done I remember that I wanted to send a patch and do not have the original files around anymore...
About "-n": That option prevents mount from writing to /etc/mtab. Since / is mounted readonly at that point this seems sensible to me. If / is writeable already then adding -n does not hurt as /etc/init.d/mtab.sh will add the entry later. The init.d scripts do the same thing, so I assumed this was forgotten and added it. About commenting out the timestamp: I commented it out mostly because I wasn't sure what that line is meant to do and ran into some trouble testing this stuff. I forgot to comment it in later. Something else: I get a message along the lines of "/dev/zero can not be mmaped" at startup and shutdown and am not sure that this is related to my changes... serious testing of these changes is recommended. -- Virtual filesystem mounts could use more restrictive mount options https://launchpad.net/bugs/54530 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
