1. Humm BUG or FEATURE ?
$ mount /dev/sdb2 /mnt/ext2
$ mount
/dev/sdb2 on / type ext2 (rw)
/dev/hdb1 on /boot type ext2 (rw)
none on
/proc type proc (rw)
/dev/sdb2 on /mnt/ext2 type ext2 (rw)

No error as /dev/sdb2 is already mounted. If I do
$ unmount /mnt/ext2
I got a PANIC

2. I have 2 SCSI disk sda2 and sdb2.
sda2: RedHat 3.0.3 + Linux-2.1.47
sdb2: RedHat 4.2 + Linux-2.1.47
It is possible that when sda2 is mount as /mnt/ext2 and I do:
$ find /mnt/ext2/dev -print > /dev/null
$ ls -l /dev | less
Some dates are ?? Aug 1996.
I think these dates came frome my OLD disk not the NEW one.
By I'm NOT SURE, I will see it this night...
