mount -0 in rc.sysinit is an invalid option -- >0< Mounting loopback filesystems: [failed]
Gerhard Gaussling
I need some advices for mandrakes rc.sysinit script.
I admit that I'm not a programmar nor an Unix crack at all. ( .. and
my english isn't that good, as well)
I got several Problems with updating my Mandrake 8.0 partially(!) :-(
to Mandrake 8.2
(I think that was no good Idea, but with sane 1.0.7 I can scan now
with my Umax 2000u usb scanner!
And there were other updates too depending on kernel 2.4.18 and
glibc-2.2.5 and gcc-3.03.
So I had to upgrade my machine but my ISDN is too slow to get the
whole Distribution)
The main problem now is to get those messages at bootup the machine:
-bash: /etc/sysconfig/system: Permission denied
Einhängen lokaler Dateisysteme: [failed] #en:
"Mounting local filesystems: "
Einhängen des loopback Dateisystems: [failed] #en:
"Mounting loopback filesystems: "
After logging in the most things are looking good.
At the beginning I had errors like unresolved symbols or
busybox: Device or recource is busy and
ERROR: /bin/insmod exited abnormally!
after login by typing ifconfig there was no output (no loopback!) and
mount
mounted only
/dev/hdb3 on / type reiserfs (rw),
none on /proc and /proc/bus/usb,
but I solved it by renaming /lib/modules/2.4.18-6mdk in
/lib/modules/2.4.18-6mdk_old
compiling a new kernel from the proper sources with reiserfs as modul
( make mrproper xconfig dep clean modules modules_install bzImage)
rm /boot/initrd.img and
mkinitrd /boot/initrd-2.4.18-6mdk.img 2.4.18-6mdk # mkinitrd:
version 3.1.6-mdk
mv ./arch/i386/boot/bzImage /boot/vmlinuz-xyz
editing /etc/lilo.conf
and typing lilo ...
Now I got by typing ifconfig:
lo Link encap:Local Loopback
inet addr:127.0.0.1 Mask:255.0.0.0
UP LOOPBACK RUNNING MTU:16436 Metric:1
RX packets:481 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
TX packets:481 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
collisions:0 txqueuelen:0
RX bytes:37254 (36.3 Kb) TX bytes:37254 (36.3 Kb)
but local filesystems are not mounted on boot. Typing mount -a mounts
all other filesystems properly.
A lot of the initscripts and services depend on mounted loopback and
other filesystems.

So, my question now is:
1) What version of mount do I need to get the option -0 (zero)
working
2) Do I have to change all the mount -0 (zero not O or o)
lines in the rc.sysinit script ?
Here some lines of my rc.sysinit and outputs of dmesg and other - I
hope - useful informations:

[root@# mount -0
mount: Ungültige Option -- »0«
Usage: mount -V : print version
mount -h : print this help
mount : list mounted filesystems
mount -l : idem, including volume labels
So far the informational part. Next the mounting.
The command is `mount [-t fstype] something somewhere'.
Details found in /etc/fstab may be omitted.
mount -a : mount all stuff from /etc/fstab
mount device : mount device at the known place
mount directory : mount known device here
mount -t type dev dir : ordinary mount command
Note that one does not really mount a device, one mounts
a filesystem (of the given type) found on the device.
One can also mount an already visible directory tree elsewhere:
mount --bind olddir newdir
A device can be given by name, say /dev/hda1 or /dev/cdrom,
or by label, using -L label or by uuid, using -U uuid .
Other options: [-nfFrsvw] [-o options].
For many more details, say man 8 mount .
I appreciate any suggestions
