Hmm. Your problem is, I think, df output (a line) does not always exactly match fstab lines. The data needs to be reformatted. Before you compare.

So, your compare loop has problems trying to compare things. Can you please show us how you got values into ARRAY1 and ARRAY2 to begin with?

PS: awk can do what you want in a single line - find excluded stings from one array to another.

chdist

CHDIST(1)                                                                                                                                CHDIST(1)

NAME

       chdist - script to easily play with several distributions

SYNOPSIS

       chdist [options] [command] [command parameters]

DESCRIPTION

       chdist is a rewrite of what used to be known as 'MultiDistroTools' (or mdt). Its use is to create 'APT trees' for several distributions,
       making it easy to query the status of packages in other distribution without using chroots, for instance.

OPTIONS

       -h, --help
           Provide a usage message.

       -d, --data-dir DIR
           Choose data directory (default: $HOME/.chdist/).

       -a, --arch ARCH
           Choose architecture (default: `dpkg --print-architecture`).

       --version
           Display version information.

COMMANDS

       create DIST [URL RELEASE SECTIONS]
           Prepare a new tree named DIST

       apt-get DIST <update|source|...>
           Run apt-get inside DIST

       apt-cache DIST <show|showsrc|...>
           Run apt-cache inside DIST

       apt-rdepends DIST [...]
           Run apt-rdepends inside DIST

       compare-bin-versions DIST1 DIST2
           Same as compare-packages/compare-bin-packages, but also runs dpkg --compare-versions and display where the package is newer.

       compare-src-bin-packages DIST
           Compare sources and binaries for DIST

       compare-src-bin-versions DIST
           Same as compare-src-bin-packages, but also run dpkg --compare-versions and display where the package is newer

       grep-dctrl-packages DIST [...]
           Run grep-dctrl on *_Packages inside DIST

       grep-dctrl-sources DIST [...]
           Run grep-dctrl on *_Sources inside DIST

       list
           List available DISTs
