[Gluster-users] mounting glusterfs on /etc/mtab read only

[Enno Lange]

Hi,

we running a cluster of diskless gentoo-systems. Therefore, /etc/mtab is 
linked to /proc/mounts as usual. Trying to mount a glusterfs fails 
because mtab is not writable. Is there by any chance a way to pass '-n' 
or something equivalent to the underlying mount -t fuse process?

The actual workaround we deployed is to link /etc/mtab to a local file 
on a scratch partition, which in my opinion is quite unsatisfying: The 
mount process will succeed but the mounted fs will not appear in the 
linked /etc/mtab.
