Yes, you can mount other partitions, but I did not succeed in re-mounting

And the conclusion is that any program that uses stdio will fail. I did
succeed in producing several core dumps, and the gdb tracebacks and some
objdump gymnastics showed that all these programs die in the same place,
i.e. at an FPU instruction. See a previous message by me for the specific
details.
