When I call this function the system just hangs up. I have to restart linux by switching off and on. Can somebody tell me why mount call just hangs? Is there anyway to take a dump when the call is being executed. I tried looking for description about mount but couldnt find anything helpful. I will really appreciate if someone can share his/her experience regarding the same. Thanks and Regards Swapneel P.S Please include my email id in the Cc list as I have not subscribed to this list.
