/dev/shm is a symlink to /run/shm. We create /run/shm in mountvirtfs
and link it in udev. The no-error sequence there is:
if ! mountpoint /dev > /dev/null; then
mount -n -t tmpfs tmpfs /dev -o mode=755
fi
ln -s /run/shm /dev/shm
I'll do some debugging to see if the mountpoint exists or not. Note
that I am still using LFS 7.0 and not using the newer udev/devtmpfs.
What different is that I have /dev/pts created implicitly without
anything specific in the scripts. I haven't heard of the problem Baho
has before.
There is no reference to /dev/pts in any of the scripts.
There are three places /dev/pts is mentioned in the book:
6.2. Preparing Virtual Kernel File Systems
8.2. Creating the /etc/fstab File
9.3. Rebooting the System
