The problems manifests itself during the executing of /lib/init/mount-
functions.sh near line 110.
if [ ! -d "$MTPT" ]
then
log_warning_msg "Mount point '$MTPT' does not exist. Skipping
mount."
return
fi
I checked with adding various ls -ld that the /dev/shm and /dev/pts do
not exists. However they exist later. I managed to "fix" the issue by
creating the missing /dev/shm and /dev/pts directories if they do not
exist. Obviously the fix is ugly hack.
if [ "/dev/shm" = "$MTPT" ]
then
echo Trying to create missing /dev/shm
mkdir /dev/shm
elif [ "/dev/pts" = "$MTPT" ]
then
echo Trying to create missing /dev/shm
mkdir /dev/pts
else
So the /dev at this point of booting must be different than the /dev
that's there later? You need need to recreate the missing directories on
each reboot so maybe it's initrd related?
