Bug 42903 – main partition is mounted twice

• Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 38360
• Product: Gentoo Hosted Projects

[Description Florian Effenberger 2004-02-25 09:47:05 UTC]

The main partition is mounted twice:

/dev/hda6 on / type ext3 (rw,noatime)
/dev/hda6 on / type ext2 (rw,noatime)
none on /proc type proc (rw)
none on /dev type devfs (rw)
none on /dev/shm type tmpfs (rw)
none on /proc/bus/usb type usbfs (rw)

# noatime turns off atimes for increased performance (atimes normally aren't
# needed; notail increases performance of ReiserFS (at the expense of storage
# efficiency).  It's safe to drop the noatime options if you want and to
# switch between notail and tail freely.

# NOTE: If your BOOT partition is ReiserFS, add the notail option to opts.

# glibc 2.2 and above expects tmpfs to be mounted at /dev/shm for
# POSIX shared memory (shm_open, shm_unlink).
# (tmpfs is a dynamically expandable/shrinkable ramdisk, and will
#  use almost no memory if not populated with files)
# Adding the following line to /etc/fstab should take care of this:

none                    /dev/shm        tmpfs           defaults                0 0

[Comment 1 SpanKY 2004-02-26 18:07:36 UTC]

do you use genkernel ?

[Comment 2 Florian Effenberger 2004-02-26 23:22:32 UTC]

Yes!

[Comment 3 Tim Yamin (RETIRED) 2004-02-27 08:22:45 UTC]

Is with xfs-sources?

[Comment 4 Rui Malheiro 2004-02-27 08:39:25 UTC]

I too have / mounted twice:

========================================
vincent root # mount
/dev/hda3 on / type reiserfs (rw,noatime)
/dev/hda3 on / type reiserfs (rw,noatime)
none on /proc type proc (rw)
none on /sys type sysfs (rw)
none on /dev type ramfs (rw)
none on /dev/pts type devpts (rw)
/dev/hda5 on /opt type reiserfs (rw,noatime,notail)
/dev/hda6 on /home type reiserfs (rw,noatime,notail)
none on /dev/shm type tmpfs (rw)
none on /proc/bus/usb type usbfs (rw)
========================================

I'm running sys-kernel/development-sources-2.6.3, compiled using sys-kernel/genkernel-3.0.1_rc1. I also have media-gfx/bootsplash-0.6-r9 (applied patch to kernel and booting with initrd)

[Comment 5 Florian Effenberger 2004-02-27 09:54:30 UTC]

Sorry, what do you mean with "Is with xfs-sources?" ?

[Comment 6 Tim Yamin (RETIRED) 2004-02-27 10:51:19 UTC]

Sorry, I missed out "this". In other words, are you getting this problem on xfs-sources as your kernel, or some other kernel sources?

Since others seem to be getting this on a variety of kernels including development-sources, I guess this is a generic problem in genkernel rather than a kernel bug which is references in bug #39143.

[Comment 7 Florian Effenberger 2004-02-27 11:02:40 UTC]

Oh, sorry ;)
I use linux-sources, the "plain"/vanilla 2.4.25 kernel compiled by Gentoo, hardware detection by hotplug.
