I checked /mnt/linux5/var/log/messages, and saw a number of these
entries:
Mar 22 13:54:10 (none) mingetty[777]: /dev/ttyS0: No such file or
directory
Upon checking /mnt/linux5/dev, I found that its well below its
complement of devices. I checked /mnt/linux5/proc, and it too
seems to
be lacking directory structures and files. Maybe it's a backup issue,
maybe it's a restore issue, but it's certainly an Upstream issue. I
will find out what's going on, and keep you all posted.
/proc is going to be empty; all the stuff in there is dynamically
created as a result of various device drivers and kernel functions.
/dev, on the other hand....
Well, if you're running udev then a lot of the nodes will be
dynamically created.
On the other hand, it sure smells like it can't find a console. Are
you sure FDR is set to back up device nodes as well as regular files?
