I agree there. What I disagree with is: 1) Your patch is actually UNcanonicalizing the name 2) mtab should record the canonicalized name to maintain compatibility with it being replaced with a symlink to /proc/mounts ( which always shows the canonicalized name ) 3) When mount is called to print the mount table, it should uncanonicalize the name to be more user friendly 4) umount should canonicalize the name before searching for it in mtab ( or maybe search for both names? ) -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe util-linux" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
