From d372eadfd3d7105a85b4d227c52538ab4ec3b2eb Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Mark Hatle Date: Thu, 3 Feb 2011 21:36:21 -0600 Subject: util-linux: Add mount lock patch Add the mount lock patch that moves the lock file from the potentially R/O /etc, to the R/W /var/lock directory. This resolves a problem when mounting when / (and /etc) is mounted R/O.
