Subject: What on earth is mounted?
I was checking to see if I had everything mounted that I wanted
in a newly genned f15 system, and I see this insanity in
the output from running "mount":
/dev/sda2 on / type ext3
(rw,relatime,errors=continue,user_xattr,acl,barrier=0,data=ordered)
/dev/sda2 on /tmp type ext3
(rw,relatime,errors=continue,user_xattr,acl,barrier=0,data=ordered)
/dev/sda2 on /var/tmp type ext3
(rw,relatime,errors=continue,user_xattr,acl,barrier=0,data=ordered)
/dev/sda2 on /home type ext3
(rw,relatime,errors=continue,user_xattr,acl,barrier=0,data=ordered)
Where on earth do those /tmp /var/tmp and /home entries come from?
They certainly aren't all mounted on top of the same filesystem root.
There are no entries for them in /etc/fstab. What is going on?
They also all show up with identical free space entries in the
output from the df command.
This is just wayyyy confusing.
Can I make it stop somehow and leave them as ordinary subdirectories
as they have always been?
I had the same problem. Very annoying!
So I switch back to upstart (yum install upstart), made some minor tweaks
(created directory /var/run/dbus so messagebus will start, removed
/etc/mtab link, touch /etc/mtab, touch /etc/init.conf, added
id:5:initdefault: to /etc/inittab), added init=/sbin/upstart to grub.conf
and everything work fine now!
