https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16227 URL: http://bugs.centos.org/view.php?id=3601 Summary: Mount command sees partition 2 and partition 7 as same partition Product: File System Version: 2.5 Kernel Version: 2.6.18-164.6.1.el5 Platform: All OS/Version: Linux Tree: Mainline Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P1 Component: ext3 AssignedTo: fs_ext3@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx ReportedBy: eugene.blanchard@xxxxxxx Regression: No When mounting multiple partitions, partition 7 sees partition 2 instead of partition 7. Partition scheme is as follows: /dev/hda1 /boot /dev/hda2 / /dev/hda3 swap /dev/hda4 extended partition /dev/hda5 / (copy of /dev/hda2) /dev/hda6 / (copy of /dev/hda2) /dev/hda7 / (copy of /dev/hda2) After copying /dev/hda2 to each partition using Gparted, I boot to /dev/hda2 and mount /dev/hda5, /dev/hda6 and /dev/hda7 to /mnt/p5, /mnt/p6, /mnt/p7 respectively. /mnt/p5 and /mnt/p6 work as expected. Here's the problem: /mnt/p7 - any modifications to it's files, modifies /dev/hda2 partition's files and vice versa. I have reproduced this across several different machines: HP DL360s, PCs, etc.. using PATA, SATA and SCSI drives. If I only mount p7, then partition p7 works as expected.
