[Buildroot] /dev mounted additionally at /mnt

[Dennis Borgmann <dennis.borgmann@googlemail.com>]

Hello Paulius!

Thank you for this FAST help. The problem was really inside inittab. I
would never have checked that file. The following line does not belong
there:

null::sysinit:/bin/mount -o remount,rw /

I commented it out and everything is the way it should be. Only question
is, why did it get into that file ever at all?

Thank you a whole lot!

Dennis
