Tom, As requested, here is my fstab file. As you'll see, there is nothing fancy in it. /dev/sda1 isn't mounted as it is just my 2MB grub partition.
Since I didn't want a tmpfs mounted in /tmp, I did follow directives from the Beginners guide:
systemctl mask tmp.mount
The result of that thing is:
1. rootfs is ro.
2. My disk partition for /tmp speficied in fstab isn't mounted.
FWIW, if you have a /tmp entry in your fstab you don't need to mask tmp.mount (the fstab takes precedence). The only time you need to maks tmp.mount is if you don't want a partition mounted on /tmp at all.
Yep, I have discovered that as well during my experiments :-) ________________________________ CONFIDENTIALITY : This e-mail and any attachments are confidential and may be privileged.
