[Mageia-dev] Problems with systemd and /media.

Since systemd puts /media on tmpfs, specifically in
/lib/systemd/system/media.mount, it's causing problems on
upgrade of a system with fstab entries that have mount
points in /media.
https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3550

At present, we have an errata entry regarding this
https://wiki.mageia.org/en/Mageia_2_Errata#Base_system

Currently the bug is assigned to the installer, with the
idea that those fstab entries should be automatically
removed.

I've since been thinking, it might be better if either
systemd, or dracut could parse /etc/fstab, and automatically
recreate any mountpoints under /media.

Opinions?
