At the beginning of my first boot after installing
gentoo (stage 1 install) there is an error message
that states that I need to specify the filesystem type
and that some filesystems are not being mounted.
(There are subsequent errors but they are probably
related to not having /var mounted ...)
/ mounts, but none of the other hard-disk based
partitions mount. Even /boot doesn't mount and that
is where the kernel resides, and it obviously loads.
After booting mounting by hand works. Below are the
contents of /proc/filesystems and /etc/fstab.
reiserfs and ext2 file systems are compiled into my
kernel, NOT as modules.
Any suggestions on getting these partitions to mount
at boot time would be appreciated.
Thanks
Richard

# glibc 2.2 and above expects tmpfs to be mounted at
/dev/shm for
# POSIX shared memory (shm_open, shm_unlink).
# (tmpfs is a dynamically expandable/shrinkable
ramdisk, and will
# use almost no memory if not populated with files)
# Adding the following line to /etc/fstab should take
care of this:
none /dev/shm tmpfs

ps: yes all of my gentoo partitions are on my third
scsi disk
