Description Amadeusz Żołnowski (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2010-09-10 14:58:09 UTC 
Dracut mounts devpts and baselayout1's /sbin/rc tries to mount it too, but fails since it's already mounted. Because of this Dracut is unusable under baselayout1 and the fix is really easy to do.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge dracut
2. dracut -H
3. setup bootloader to use initramfs generated by dracut
4. reboot

Actual Results:  
baselayout1's /sbin/rc fails on mount devpts.

Expected Results:  
Should skip mounting devpts if it's already mounted (just like it's with /proc and /sys).

The patch uses function 'is_mounted' from 'functions.sh-is_mounted-is_clean.patch' posted in bug #336723 to check if devpts is already mounted.
