[ARMedslack] dockstar /etc/mtab inconsistent with /proc/mounts on current

[Geoff Walton]

Unless you have done something like got /etc on a different volume than /
which creates its own problems then you obviously can't write to / etc.  I
have done slackware86 on nfs before with a readonly rootfs and I did have
the same problem.  I soved it by creating a link just the same way you did.
I don't think there are any issues with it.  I am surpriesed you did not
encounter this on the x86 distribution, but I was working with Slackware
11.0 at the so maybe something has changed.
