Thanks, --Amos I apologize for the lack of clarity and for the typo...Mea maxima culpa. I was refering to the error messages issued by the /etc/init.d/checkfs.sh, more specifically by the script /sbin/e2fsck (not e2fsc, as I wrote), called by it, during its attempt to check the partitions added to the system and to /etc/fstab, after full installation.

init sequence
Hi, I added a second hardrive to an existing system. I moved there three directories which should be mounted at boot, and I added the corresponding entries in /etc/fstab. Trouble is that during the e2fsc stage of the boot, I often get the message nonexistent device˝ for their mount points. Apparently udev is slow to detect them: If I comment out their entries in /etc/fstab and e2fsc them after the end of the boot sequence, and subsequently mount them, it works allright. Any suggestion ?

Re: init sequence
Hi, I'm not familiar with 'e2fsc stage', but I solved a similar problem a while ago by labelling the partitions and specifying the mount command with LABEL=abc instead of an actual device name. UUID also serves the same functiuons. Rony On Sun, Nov 20, 2011 at 12:10 PM, Avraham Rosenberg for.avra...@gmail.comwrote: Hi, I added a second hardrive to an existing system.

In the meantime, either I'll e2fsc and mount manually, or write in the rc.local three commands to the effect if that partition is not mounted, then e2fsc it and mount it (one for each one), or better, then execute again /etc/init.d/checkfs.sh and /etc/init.d/mountall.sh.
