I've just now compiled and tried the patch.

With the updated package, the active entries in /etc/fstab stay intact
after starting and closing mountmanager again.

This largely fixes the reported bug for me.


However, because mountmanager:

1.: still deletes any comments in /etc/fstab without user intervention,
and there is

2.: /no/ backup that I could view or restore via the menu 
     (mountmanager > "Tools" > "Restoration system")

if you ask me, I wouldn't conclude the issue just yet. There could be
important information in the comments. At least, there should be a
backup.


Further, when I make any changes in mountmanager and press > "Partition" > 
"Apply",  still all the NFS and crypto mounts are deleted, without a backup 
that I would find.
But maybe this should go into a separate bug report.


Anyhow,
Thanks for your help!
