B.100.1. RHBA-2011:0201 — util-linux-ng bug fix update

Updated util-linux-ng packages that fix a bug in the mount utility are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.

The util-linux-ng package contains a large variety of low-level system utilities that are necessary for a Linux system to function.

Bug Fix

BZ#659612: To address problems with iSCSI root devices not being checked with the fsck utility, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.2 introduced the "_rnetdev" mount option. However, this functionality was missing in the package for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6. With this update, the mount utility has been updated to support this option.

Users of util-linux-ng should upgrade to these updated packages, which resolve this issue.
