I had previously reported that the filesystems mounted using the changes posted for mtab+libdiskfs --mntpath sometimes failed to mount the file system writable, but that starting the translator actively worked.
It turns out that the problem was the underlying owner of the node, was non-root for the nodes which failed to start writable, specifically the owner was a normal user, group was root. After resetting the ownership of the underlying nodes to root.root the activation of a passive translator correctly reports itself to mtab as well as starts writable :-/ -- /^\ \ / ASCII RIBBON CAMPAIGN X AGAINST HTML MAIL / \ Public Key Server (pgp.dtype.org) -- Index '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Type bits /keyID Date User ID pub 1024D/DC92AE30 2002/02/26 David Walter <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> _______________________________________________ Bug-hurd mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-hurd
