| 6 | On mine the main difference seems to be bind mounts. In /etc/mtab the |
| 7 | bind mount "device" is the directory that is being bind-mounted. In |
| 8 | /proc/self/mounts it is the device that the directory sits on. Other |
| 9 | than a little confusion, I"m not sure if that will actually cause any |
| 10 | issues. |
