I don't think that is correct. Both mount and settrans use fshelp_start_translator, and that spawns a process with stdin/stdout closed, and stderr inheriting the stderr of the current process. So unless rc is run with stderr closed, mtab should be able to print messages to stderr. > - When mounting the cdrom image from debian installer scripts, the > script is not considered finished since the isofs translator is still > running and possibly emitting output. Shouldn't bla=$(blubb) only care for blubbs stdout? Justus
