Reality is visible in /proc/mounts. Some kernel versions have a bug that would cause the new process to have a strange working directory. Probably that is avoided if this is started with a working directory / or so - not in some mounted filesystem." I found symlinking /etc/mtab to /proc/self/mounts (or /proc/mounts, mhich is a symlink to /proc/self/mounts) solved the mount bug. HTH Regards, Lee Edward Causier.
