Hi,

Just run into this strange problem. The file system does not list mount
point when do "df" and lists incomplete directories (ie, fewer than
actual number of directories and files).

I am seeing following errors logged:

2.6.18-8.1.8.el5xen
autofs-5.0.1-0.rc2.43.0.2

Anyone has an idea what the problem is?
