Description Kevin Ivory 2006-02-06 12:07:42 UTC
During installation, in the expert mode of partitioning, there is the choice of reading an existing fstab. If there are several systems with fstabs (sda3 SUSE 10.0, sda5 SUSE 9.3 and sda6 SUSE 10.1b2), the first one (sda3) is read correctly, then going on to the next (sda5), all entries are duplicated. When reading the sda6-fstab, all entries are now threefold. They keep growing even more, if I go backwards. (There is a menu entry for rereading the partition table but it doesn't make any difference for this bug.)
