Description Robert Buchholz (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2007-05-11 18:01:13 UTC
After upgrading to sys-apps/baselayout-2.0.0_alpha2 on ppc, it would not start anymore because it could not mount /proc and halted.
The reason for this is that fstabinfo always prints its usage and exits with code 1.

"fstabinfo -m /" prints:
-o noatime -t ext3 /dev/hda4 /
Usage: fstabinfo [options]
...

"fstabinfo -p /" does the same. When the command is invalid (as "-m 0"), this does not happen (no output is produced).
