Public bug reported: $ lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu 8.04 Release: 8.04
$ sudo mount | grep root /dev/mapper/vgzontar-root on / type ext3 (rw,relatime,errors=remount-ro) The permissions appear to be incorrect: $ sudo ls -ld /dev/vgzontar /dev/vgzontar/root /dev/mapper/vgzontar-root brw-rw---- 1 root disk 254, 2 2008-05-29 01:55 /dev/mapper/vgzontar-root drwx------ 2 root root 100 2008-05-29 01:55 /dev/vgzontar lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 25 2008-05-29 01:55 /dev/vgzontar/root -> /dev/mapper/vgzontar-root Question A) Shouldn't the symlinks be owned by root.disk? Question B) Shouldn't the /dev/vgzontar directory be something other than 600 root.root ? I have installed a fresh copy of Ubuntu 8.04 Hardy LTS.
