This sequence of commands once worked in F16 (in kernel 3.2.10-3)
mkdir -p /tmp/testing cd /tmp/testing/ mkdir -p foo bar mount -t tmpfs tmpfs foo/ mount --move foo bar/
Sometime around 3.3.0-4 and maybe before the last command above gives this message:
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /tmp/testing/foo, missing codepage or helper program, or other error In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try dmesg | tail or so
This is still the case in 3.4.4-4.fc16, the mount --move does not work.
However, in F17 (3.4.4-5.fc17) the above sequence works fine.
Could someone hit me with a clue stick?
