[debian-knoppix] question about `scanpartitions'
Hi,
I'm using KNOPPIX_V3.2-2003-07-26-EN, and have installed to HD by both
`knoppix-hdinstaller' and `knx-hdinstall'.
After installation, the description about fstype of `fstab' is wrong.
It is as follows for details.

This problem arise not only with `knoppix-installer' but with `knx-hdinstall'
(0.39-1). Though it does not arise with 0.38-1.
--- knx-hdinstall_0.38-1 2003-02-25 08:48:54.000000000 +0900
+++ knx-hdinstall_0.39-1 2003-06-20 07:18:41.000000000 +0900
(snip)
+# Let Knoppix detect all other partitions
+chroot "$TR" mount /proc
+chroot "$TR" rebuildfstab -r <------------!!!
+chroot "$TR" umount /proc
(snip)
Probabry there will be a problem in `scanpartitions' executing from
`rebuildfstab'.
$ cat /usr/sbin/scanpartitions
(snip)
# Check if partition is already mounted
while read device mountpoint filesystem relax; do
case "$device" in *$1*) echo "$filesystem";; esac
done <<EOT
$(cat /proc/mounts)
EOT
(snip)
If /dev/hda10(ext3) is mounted during HD-install, "$filesystem" above is `ext3'.
Am I right?
And may I coment out the above-mentioned part?
If I do such a thing, are there any serious problems?
Please let me know.
Thank you.
