See https://lists.debian.org/debian-user/2019/08/msg00295.html
where the attachments are kindly attached to the body text.

Results from "mount" without arguments or the contents of /etc/mtab
and /proc/mounts seem indeed not yet shown.

The central riddle is how mount(8) can fail to make the filesystem
available without visibly reporting an error.
A question about "mount -v" and its exit value is pending.
Maybe one should also look at dmesg output after such a silent failure.


Have a nice day :)
