Apparently it is important. I just discovered /var/log/kern.log, which logs things that happen even before / is mounted. Here is the relevant part: Oct 23 08:18:39 k2 kernel: EXT3-fs: mounted filesystem with writeback data mode. Oct 23 08:18:39 k2 kernel: VFS: Mounted root (ext3 filesystem) readonly on device 8:7. Oct 23 08:18:39 k2 kernel: Freeing unused kernel memory: 256k freed Oct 23 08:18:39 k2 kernel: kjournald starting. Commit interval 5 seconds Oct 23 08:18:39 k2 kernel: udev: starting version 141 No such warning for me. The question is why not? Any ideas?
