This patch fixes the mount problem with sync, but we're left with the other std mount options (such as [no]atime) not working. But I get your point regarding options. I think the moral is I should eliminate noatime, sync, and nosymfollow from the list of common mount options for HAL to use. >=20 >=20 > > MNT_STDOPTS options since mntopts.h says that these are options all > > mounts can understand?

Understood, thanks.
