Irritatingly, the Linux 'mount' command doesn't do this, it merely dumps out whatever is in /etc/mtab at the time. This is because some information relating to loopback and user mounts is only available in mtab, since it's only used by the userspace tools. This means it is similarly unreliable - the only way to find out what the kernel's really up to on Linux is to inspect /proc/mounts directly. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
