Hi!

Having dash as the system's default for /bin/sh breaks at least hvmount 
and hvumount:

a...@chopin:~$ hvumount 
/usr/bin/hvumount: 470: Syntax error: word unexpected

whereas running with bash:

a...@chopin:~$ /bin/bash hvumount
umount requires an udi, a mountpoint, a device or -a

Same for hvmount:

a...@chopin:~$ hvmount
shift: 77: can't shift that many


a...@chopin:~$ /bin/bash hvmount
Usage: hvmount <command> <args> [options]
  Options:
    -a                                  umount all
    -c <mount_command>                  set mount command (autodetected)
    -d <device>                         set device
    -p <mountpoint>                     set mountpoint
    -l <label>                          set label (for pmount)
    -m <umask>                          mount umask (for pmount)
    -s                                  if set, mount sync
    -u <udi>                            set udi
  Commands:
    mount                               mount <device> which has <udi>
    mountpoint                          register <mountpoint> for <udi>
    umount                              unmount device, mountpoint or udi
    list                                list mounted and registered 
                                        devices
    umountpoint                         unregister mountpoint for <udi>
    remove                              remove completly <udi>
    clean                               remove database



AFAIK, dash is intended to replace bash regarding /bin/sh.

Don't know if this is a dash or halevt bug. Simple solution would be to 
change the shebang line to /bin/bash, but I guess it's better to fix the 
scripts itself.
