Comment 8 for bug 431954

This bugs is still present in mountall 0.2.2 package.

I hope attached file could help

A funny behavior happens when i try to "merge" folders in different media.

if my /etc/fstab looks like this:

/dev/mmcblk0p1 /mnt/sd ext4 defaults,noatime 0 1
none /home aufs br=/mnt/sd=rw:/mnt/home=rw,create=mfs:30 0 1

where /dev/mmcblk0p1 is my external sd card.

then the "merged" /home directory DOES NOT CONTAIN any file resident in my sd card.

Instead if my /etc/fstab looks like this:

none /home aufs br=/mnt/test=rw:/mnt/home=rw,create=mfs:30 0 1

where /mnt/test is a folder resident in my internal hard disk

then the "merged" /home directory correctly contain all the files resident in /mnt/test (this also if mountall.log still complain about bad argument passed to mount.aufs).
