Hallo, Bruce,
Du meintest am 07.09.14:
I have a user that complains that mount is giving an incorrect error
message under some circumstances. For instance if mtab is symlinked
to /proc/self/mounts the command and /run is not in fstab:
$ mount /run
returns an error message:
mount: /run: No such file or directory
However if mtab is a regular file, the error message is:
mount: can't find /run in /etc/fstab
It would be appropriate if both situations could return the 2nd
message.
There's no need to put the device into a special line in "/etc/fstab".
mount /dev/sdxn /run
should always work, with the appropriate values for x and n.
Unless your script does not know what x or n are in advance.
Actually I followed up my original post and said the it was invalid.
