Don't do NFS localhost mounts from fstab
Why would you want to do localhost: NFS mounts anyway?
Perhaps for a restricted 'regrafting' RO overmount down in a autobuilder's chroot tree, rather than a 'bind' mount ? I can see some rare uses for it as a way to solve ACL problems
Since these are RO to local system why not mount them "soft,intr"?
Or you could use automount.
I didn't realize you couldn't do bind mounts read-only. Interesting.
What about re-mounting the same block device (presumably as ext3) in ro mode at another mountpoint?
Or if that complained, maybe created an additional block device under /dev with identical major/minor numbers and mounting *that* RO?
Maybe ext3 wouldn't handle that too well...
