Public bug reported:

I'm using Ubuntu 14.10 dev with mount 2.25.1-3ubuntu2 and if the current
running kernel is being removed (for example because a new one is
installed but the system wasn't rebooted directly afterwards) and a
device is trying to be mounted I'm always getting this error:

sworddragon@ubuntu:~$ sudo mount /dev/sdf1 /mnt
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sdf1,
       missing codepage or helper program, or other error

       In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
       dmesg | tail or so.


All other parts of the system are working fine (for example 3D applications with proprietary graphics driver) even if running for several days so probably this could be a bug/missing feature in mount.

** Affects: util-linux (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: New

** Summary changed:

- Devices can't be mounted if the kernel is removed
+ Devices can't be mounted if the current running kernel is missing
