[coreutils] A simple "du /" question

[Michel Briand]

Hello,

this may not be a bug. Please pardon for any annoyance, but this
question is not visibly treated in FAQ.

I wonder why, when I use "du /" (as root), it reports errors like this:

du: cannot access `./proc/4607': No such file or directory
du: cannot access `./<nfsroot>/<somehost>/<somedir>': No such file or directory

I have automount started and /<nfsroot> is my NFS access to other hosts:

automount(pid3579) on /<nfsroot> type autofs 
(rw,fd=4,pgrp=3579,minproto=2,maxproto=4)

Thank you for you answer.

Best regards,
Michel Briand
