b4efdf97 61 to the root file system, the <filename>/usr</filename>

62 file system and the kernel API file systems. This is
63 required so that the mount options of these file
64 systems -- which are pre-mounted by the kernel, the
65 initial RAM disk, container environments or system
66 manager code -- are updated to those listed in
67 <filename>/etc/fstab</filename>. This service ignores
68 normal file systems and only changes the root file
69 system (i.e. <filename>/</filename>),

71 file systems such as <filename>/proc</filename>,
72 <filename>/sys</filename> or
