Package: debootstrap Version: 1.0.141 Severity: wishlist This is a true wishlist report for user convenience. Please don't touch before the trixie release.
Currently, /etc/fstab is initialized with a plain "UNCONFIGURED FSTAB FOR BASE SYSTEM" line. Normal Debian systems have this: ------ # /etc/fstab: static file system information. # # Use 'blkid' to print the universally unique identifier for a # device; this may be used with UUID= as a more robust way to name devices # that works even if disks are added and removed. See fstab(5). # # systemd generates mount units based on this file, see systemd.mount(5). # Please run 'systemctl daemon-reload' after making changes here. # # <file system> <mount point> <type> <options> <dump> <pass> ------ As someone who is having a hard time writing proper fstab entries after 30 years of Unix experience, may I suggest something in this direction that might be helpful in filling the file, maybe: ------ # UNCONFIGURED /etc/fstab FOR BASE SYSTEM CREATED BY DEBOOTSTRAP # # <file system> <mount point> <type> <options> <dump> <pass> ------ Thanks for your consideration. Should you decide to stay with the original wording, I'm fine with that. I have still a few years left to learn how to write a proper fstab file. Greetings Marc
