My sda1 is mounted to /boot after booting, and I can manually mount it just fine. But something is automatically unmounting that partition, even after I've manually mounted it.

These are the current permissions when it's unmounted:

drwxr-xr-x   2 root root    0 Sep 24 14:15 boot/

and when it's mounted:

drwxr-x---   4 root root 2.0K Jan  1  1970 boot/

Is there supposed to be a discrepancy between these two?

This is what's in /etc/fstab

UUID=32AC-72EA          /boot       vfat        nodev,nosuid,noexec,rw,relatime,fmask=0022,dmask=0022,codepage=437,iocharset=iso8859-1,shortname=mixed,errors=remount-ro    0 2

The UUID is correct, I've checked it.

What the hell is unmounting that partition?
