#463 | fixed | /etc/mtab should not be a symlink | ||
Description |
/etc/mtab is currently being symlinked to /proc/mounts. This causes problems with applications that watch mtab. KDE for example loses performance becuase it will continually report that the /etc/mtab file is a dirty file. Once I changed the file to a static file in /etc it worked much better and KDE stopped complaining. Is there a possibility this could be changed in future version of LFS? The KDE Mailing list repeated gets complaints on this. Below I've attached one of the emails I received from the KDE Devel team regarding this problem. ---<SNIP>---
I don't think about /etc/mtab being a symlink. Actually it was quite easy to fix once you pointed me to the symlink. I dropped to single user mode (ie. telinit 1) Killed any othe processes not killed by init so that all I had running was my single bash shell as root. umounted all unneeded filesystems. Deleted symlink in /etc and touched an empty file. Just to test it, I mounted another filesystem and it wrote to the static file. Then in /etc/rc.d/init.d/mountfs I changed: mount -n -o remount,rw / to mount -o remount,rw / And all works fine :) ---<SNIP>--- Regards, Adam Watson |
