Hello list, My LAN server uses my workstation as a portage compute host, in which its portage directories are NFS-exported to a choot on the workstation. It also has a separate rescue system, which I want to handle the same way.
I have the following relevant fstab entries on the server: /dev/sda5 / ext4 relatime,errors=remount-ro 0 1 /dev/sda2 /boot vfat noauto,codepage=850 0 2 /dev/sda8 /var/cache/packages ext4 relatime,nodev,nosuid,shared 0 3 /dev/sda4 /mnt/rescue ext4 relatime,noauto 0 2 /dev/sda2 /mnt/rescue/boot vfat noauto,codepage=850 0 0 tmpfs /var/tmp/portage tmpfs relatime,uid=portage,gid=portage,mode=0775 0 0 tmpfs /mnt/rescue/var/tmp/portage tmpfs ro,relatime,uid=portage,gid=portage,mode=0775 0 0 # NFS-export portage to bin-host: /var/db/repos/gentoo /mnt/nfs/portage ext4 bind 0 0 /var/cache/packages /mnt/nfs/portage.packages ext4 bind,shared 0 0 /var/cache/distfiles /mnt/nfs/portage.distfiles ext4 bind,shared 0 0 /mnt/nfs/portage.packages /mnt/nfs/rescue.packages ext4 bind,noauto 0 0 /mnt/nfs/portage.distfiles /mnt/nfs/rescue.distfiles ext4 bind,noauto 0 0 Now, after a clean boot I get this: $ mount | grep portage tmpfs on /var/tmp/portage type tmpfs (rw,relatime,mode=775,uid=250,gid=250) /dev/sda5 on /mnt/nfs/portage type ext4 (rw,relatime,errors=remount-ro) <--- /dev/sda8 on /mnt/nfs/portage.packages type ext4 (rw,nosuid,nodev,relatime) /dev/sda5 on /mnt/nfs/portage.distfiles type ext4 (rw,relatime,errors=remount-ro) <--- I get the same if I boot after rc-update del nfs default, but of course I need that for NFS export. Why does /dev/sda5 appear under /mnt/nfs, as well as being the root FS? Is my understanding of the various mount options to blame? -- Regards, Peter.
