Could you retry with http://people.debian.org/~rleigh/sysvinit_2.88dsf-13.6.dsc http://people.debian.org/~rleigh/initscripts_2.88dsf-13.6_amd64.deb Works for me, but since I don't use startpar it would be good to have that confirmed to work as well.

The fsname/dir/type are all identical. I'll need to look more carefully at what's going on, but could well be a mount bug given the identical contents. It would be ideal if we could upgrade to a current version of mount, such as 2.19 (2.19.1 is due out soon). http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/util-linux/v2.19/util-linux-2.19.tar.bz2 This will work much better with /proc/mounts when built with libmount support enabled, and it's now actively used with /etc/mtab being a symlink (with Fedora/systemd) so it's likely that this sort of niggle when using /proc/mounts will have been fixed. Given that util-linux is not exactly kept up-to-date in Debian, if anyone wanted to package and NMU it, that would be another big step to getting systemd and read-only root working in Debian. With this version in Debian, we can finally make the switch to having /etc/mtab as a symlink. Regards, Roger -- .''`.
