           Summary: changes to fstab not read on device startup
           Product: System software
           Version: 4.0
          Platform: N810
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Low
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: carlos at maemo.org
        ReportedBy: carbonfreeze at gmail.com
         QAContact: hafqa at maemo.org


Recently attempted to use /dev/mmcblk0p1 as /home on n810, unfortunately
/etc/fstab appears to be ignored by the OS during device startup. If I manually
umount & mount the partition with the installed console or via ssh, the
partition is mounted at the correct location.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM:
Change mount point of the internal mmc device in fstab.

EXPECTED OUTCOME:
Device /dev/mmcblk0p1 is mounted at the designated location in fstab.

ACTUAL OUTCOME:
Device /dev/mmcblk0p1 is mounted at /media/mmc2 at boot time.

REPRODUCIBILITY:
always

EXTRA SOFTWARE INSTALLED:
gcc4, nano, misc games, python...

OTHER COMMENTS:
firmware build 2007-42-19. Also tested with mount point of /media/mmc-test
(which I created) with same results.
