Description of problem: anaconda, as on the F11-CDs/DVDs, is unable to parse bind-mounts from fstab. Instead of correctly processing them, it fails badly and aborts. This significantly reduces usability of the CDs/DVDs for upgrading existing installations and using the F11-CDs/DVD's "rescue mode". Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): anaconda-11.5.0.59-1.fc11.x86_64 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. On an FC10 system, add a "bind" mount to /etc/fstab E.g. ... /dev/VolGroup01/LogVol02 /home ext3 defaults 1 2 /home/ftp/pub /var/ftp/pub none bind .. 2. Reboot with F11 DVDs Alternative: Add bind-mounts to /etc/fstab and try to boot from DVD in "rescue mode". Actual results: "upgrading" or "rescue installed system" aborts with: "An error occurred mounting device /mnt/sysimage/home/home/ftp/pub as /var/ftp/pub: device /mnt/sysimage/home/home/ftp/pub does not exist" (Note the duplicate /home) Expected results: Function.
