Subject: diskless: Updating host's /etc/fstab ignores that file in root
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii; format=flowed
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit
Delivered-To: submit@bugs.debian.org
Package: diskless
Version: 0.3.17
Severity: minor
Greetings,
When creating or updating a host image, /etc/fstab is always created the
same way. This ignores customizations that could be made in /etc/fstab
in the root image, such as a local disk or swap partition, an alternate
server for /home, or other NFS entries.
It would be nice if this could be generated from root's /etc/fstab
instead, simply adding the NFS root, /etc, /var, /tmp and
/var/lib/diskless entries, instead of using only these.
I suppose whether this is a bug or a wishlist is a matter of opinion,
feel free to change the severity if you feel that's appropriate.
Zeen,
