Doh! I've just discovered that /proc/mounts contains only one page of
information, and I've just overflowed it (lots of nfs mounted filesystems on
mountpoints with long names - thanks to amd :-) I guess most people will run
into NR_SUPER (64) before they hit the one page limit - but I hit it in the
high 50s. (And I'm about to increase NR_SUPER on my system anyway). Anybody got
a patch to increase it on demand ala /proc/ksyms et al? I guess I'll do one if
noone else has, if I ever get the time (has somebody done this for 2.1 yet? I
only have 2.0 kernel source at the moment).

David
