    That's what you'd think. All these machines have a drive mounted on
    /var.

    [root@www /root]# df
    Filesystem 1k-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on
    10.0.0.10:/nfsroot 34020868 24061800 8230876 75% /
    /dev/sda1 8744304 1473776 6826336 18% /var

    I've checked to see if mtab was lying to me, and it's not.. I can unmount
    and remount the drive on /var..

    The system runs with one nfs server, and 4 children, all using nfs
    root. They all mount /dev/sda1 on /var. Yet for some reason I get these
    messages. I went from 2.2.16 -> 2.2.18 without changing anything but the
    kernel. Has something changed? This doesn't look right to me at all.
