John Smith <[email protected]> has reassigned Bugzilla Automation <[email protected]>'s request for maintainer-feedback to [email protected]: Bug 216983: emulators/linux_base-c6: info message advises to make the system not boot properly https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=216983
--- Description --- 1. install message for linux_base-c6 tells me to add 2 mounts to /etc/fstab because some programs might need it: pkg info -D linux_base-c6 linux_base-c6-6.8_11: Always: Some programs need linprocfs mounted on /compat/linux/proc. Add the following line to /etc/fstab: linprocfs /compat/linux/proc linprocfs rw 0 0 Then run "mount /compat/linux/proc". Some programs need tmpfs mounted on /compat/linux/dev/shm. Add the following line to /etc/fstab: tmpfs /compat/linux/dev/shm tmpfs rw,mode=1777 0 0 Then run "mount /compat/linux/dev/shm". 2. if I add them just like that and reboot - the system will boot into a single user mode, because '/etc/fstab' fails to mount those mounts. 3. it so turns out that one needs to add linux_load="YES" linprocfs_load="YES" to the '/boot/loader.conf' file. 4. even with those lines added to the '/boot/loader.conf', the tmpfs mount in '/etc/fstab' will still lead to booting into a single user mode. As far as I know (not 100% sure), but adding 'late' option to the tmpfs mount entry in '/etc/fstab' resolves the issue, but this is not mentioned anywhere and the port's info message directly advises to add quite specific line to '/etc/fstab', which leads to system not booting properly. _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-emulation To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
