Description Jan Sabbe 2002-01-22 16:37:56 UTC

After I did a hard reset on my system, (because X was locked up), I noticed 
that my home wasn't mounted. So I just did mount /home, mount /var/data 
... And then when I checked with mount/df, I had the same partition 
mounted on the same dir two times. I guess it's because /etc/mtab doesn't 
get cleaned on boot.

Yes, I think this is fixed now but assigning to azarah to make sure.
(maybe we need to create a new baselayout release)

Fixed it the other day already, with baselayout release 1.7.0-r1.
