I am using Ubuntu Gutsy, which is the in-development branch heading for

I have noticed that since some kernel release post-2.6.20 I have been
unable to mount my /boot partition:
$ sudo strace -f mount /dev/hda1 /mnt/foo
execve("/bin/mount", ["mount", "/dev/hda1", "/mnt/foo"], [/* 41 vars*/])= 0
... = 0
mount("/dev/hda1", "/mnt/foo", "ext3", MS_MGC_VAL, NULL) = -1 EBUSY (Device or resource busy)
rt_sigprocmask(SIG_UNBLOCK, ~[TRAP SEGV RTMIN RT_1], NULL, 8) = 0
write(2, "mount: /dev/hda1 already mounted"..., 50mount: /dev/hda1 already mounted or /mnt/foo busy) = 50
...
All other block devices (all LVM LVs) seem to mount with no problems.
Probably something to do with either LVM or the Device Mapper having
the raw partition already "open" for some remapping purpose.
There was a note about that around here somewhere quite recently..
