[Bug 806474] [NEW] WARNING: bad format on line 25 of /etc/fstab

[Hadmut Danisch]

Public bug reported:

Hi,

I have that line in my /etc/fstab

none /var/www/dav/Public aufs
br:/mnt/local/archiv/Public_dav:/mnt/local/archiv/Public 0 0

to make an archive writeable for external webdav users while not
allowing them to modify original data. It's just an empty directory
mounted over an archive with aufs to make it look writable.

Works as expected, mount does not complain.

But within the bootprocess, e2fsck complains

WARNING: bad format on line 25 of /etc/fstab


and fails. Seems as if e2fsck's idea of a correct entry somewhat differs from that of mount.
