On a pure udev system (no tarball) using the latest unmasked udev and baselayout, non-root partitions fail to mount because they are either already mounted or busy. <snip> * Checking all filesystems ... /dev/hdb2: clean, 21/24192 files, 5385/96390 blocks [ ok ] * Mounting local filesystems ... mount: /dev/hdb5 already mounted or /home busy mount: /dev/hdb6 already mounted or /usr busy mount: /dev/hdb7 already mounted or /pub busy mount: /dev/hde1 already mounted or /data busy none on /dev/shm type tmpfs (rw,size=200m) mount: none already mounted or /proc/bus/usb busy * Some local filesystem failed to mount [ !! ] * Activating (possibly) more swap ... [ ok ] </snip> Leaving severity as 'normal' as the partitions do eventually mount silently. The error is perhaps only cosmetic & a slight slowdown in boot time. However, /dev/shm does get mounted twice in the end... The problem seems to be the following line in /etc/udev/rules.d/50-udev.rules ENV{UDEVD_EVENT}=="1", RUN+="/sbin/udev_run_hotplugd" Commenting out this line fixes the problem, but perhaps some sort of check would be better. It maybe that tying hotplug to udev in this way means hotplug is either trying to mount the partitions or is hogging the usage of the dirs at the same time mount is called. I suspect the former as /dev/shm is mounted twice.
Do you have a hotplug script that mounts the partitions? What is doing the mounting? What kernel version are you using?
and where is `emerge info` like you were supposed to post

I haven't any custom hotplug scripts anywhere, just what comes with the default hotplug emerge. I thought that there maybe some old legacy hotplug scripts hanging around in /etc from previous hotplug versions, so I un-merged hotplug, cleaned out all hotplug directories in /etc & re-emerged hotplug, but with no luck. I also haven't been able to see exactly where or what hotplug script is causing the issue. > What is doing the mounting? /etc/init.d/localmount as called by the init scripts in the boot runlevel The relevant line is: mount -at noproc,noshm,no${NET_FS_LIST// /,no} If the line is commented out, the error disappears but the partitions do not get mounted. > What kernel version are you using? sys-kernel/vanilla-sources-2.6.15_rc5 However, the error also presents itself on sys-kernel/vanilla-sources-2.6.14.4 As far as I can tell, the process happens like so: `mount -at` is called from /etc/init.d/localmount The process of calling `mount` triggers a udev event The udev event runs `udev_run_hotplugd` which either tries to mount the partitions or ties up the directories that mount is trying to mount to Let me know if you need more info
I think if you use coldplug and don't have any non-boot required modules in /etc/modules.autoload.d/kernel-2.6 you won't get his error. The newest /etc/modules.autoload.d/kernel-2.6 should only be used for raid drivers and the like. All other modules are loaded by hot/coldplug. http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-416530.html
Installing coldplug does not fix, it was already installed. Removing the entries located in /etc/modules.autoload.d/kernel-2.* does not fix. The problem has been fixed in udev-0.79-r1 revision. Bug #118419 is a duplicate of this bug.
