I would use mount --no-canonical to rewrite mtab to match fstab so my utils could find volumes in /etc/fstab -- but recently in util-linux-2.21.2 this has no longer worked. I made sure to have /etc/mtab NOT be a symlink to /proc/self/mounts so mount could write to it. It DOES write to it, but it doesn't display it. Example: After doing a remount as recommended by the manpage... mount -f --no-canonical -a -o remount mount and df now produce different output.
