Hey Lonnie!
I certainly have edited rc.conf, and you caught me! I have an external USB
hard drive (/dev/sdb2) that I use to store recordings of phone calls. I
couldn't figure out how to get it to auto mount, so I ended up adding the
following lines to rc.conf that did the trick:
mkdir /mnt/usbhd
mount /dev/sdb2 /mnt/usbhd

Hi Josh,
Quick answer, it looks like you have edited the system initialization script
/etc/rc in the past (a no-no :-) ) As such /dev/shm is not getting mounted,
which is generating the "Unable to create 'dahdi_cfg' mutex:".
More specifically ...
Does this command generate any output ?
--
show-union | grep '/etc/rc$'
--
My guess is yes. Assuming so ...
Determine what changes you made relative the of latest official /etc/rc
--
diff -u /oldroot/mnt/asturo/etc/rc /oldroot/mnt/asturw/etc/rc
--
I'm assuming you made changes to mount your /mnt/usbhd as shown above ... a
supported method to do so would be to create a bash script "/mnt/kd/rc.elocal"
make it executable and put any initialization commands there.
If you want to revert to the standard /etc/rc remove your edited version off
unionfs by:
--
rm /oldroot/mnt/asturw/etc/rc
--
(and reboot)
Worst case solution, you could add the one line to your edited /etc/rc that
mounts /dev/shm on tmpfs, (and reboot). Fixes the problem today, causes
problems down the road.
Lonnie
PS, just curious, can you explain why you need/want to mount /dev/sdb2 on
/mnt/usbhd ?
