The trailing "/" might be a red herring. I've tried the following: as root 1/ mkdir /foo /bar 2/ echo "/foo /bar none bind,user 0 0" >> /etc/fstab as user 1/ mount /bar (successful) 2/ umount /bar umount: /bar mount disagrees with the fstab (umount as root works without problems) When /bar is mounted, I get: # cat /run/mount/utab SRC=/dev/disk/by-uuid/5c503ec2-6528-44bb-9ff5-aa2687aa9706 TARGET=/bar ROOT=/foo BINDSRC=/foo OPTS=user=michael (looks ok) # findmnt /bar/ TARGET SOURCE FSTYPE OPTIONS /bar /dev/disk/by-uuid/5c503ec2-6528-44bb-9ff5-aa2687aa9706[/foo] ext4 rw,relatime,errors=remount-ro,user_xattr,acl,barrier=1,data=ordered (I'd expect the user option to be set) # cat /proc/mounts | grep /bar /dev/disk/by-uuid/5c503ec2-6528-44bb-9ff5-aa2687aa9706 /bar ext4 rw,relatime,errors=remount-ro,user_xattr,acl,barrier=1,data=ordered 0 0 When I do as root 1/ rm /etc/mtab 2/ touch /etc/mtab as user 1/ mount /bar 2/ mount /foo on /bar type none (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev,bind,user=michael) 3/ umount /bar everything works as expected. So it looks like something's fishy going on here -- Why is it that all of the instruments seeking intelligent life in the universe are pointed away from Earth?
