Package: kernel-source-2.6.8
Version: 2.6.8-6
Severity: normal
When I use CONFIG_DEVFS_MOUNT=y on a dual xeon, the main /dev/hda drive still
boots
fine to /dev/hda1, but swap on /dev/hda2 won't mount on boot or with "swapon
-a", fdisk
sees nothing, and cfdisk says "FATAL ERROR: Cannot open disk drive". Booting
with
"devfs=nomount" solves the problem.
This is pretty alarming and it took me a while to pinpoint the problem, so I
hope at
least a warning can be inserted in the help screen.
