Reported here: <a href="https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=89721">https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=89721</a> Though "/dev/root" is really device name used to mount root (and it resolves to 8:4 by blkdev_get_by_path on my system), even /proc/mounts contain /dev/sda4 as root device name, so it's wrong to report "/dev/root" instead of "/dev/sda4".</pre> </div> <hr> You are receiving this mail because: <ul> <li>You are the QA Contact for the bug.</li> <li>You are the assignee for the bug.</li> </ul> </body> </html>
