Description Andrew MacKenzie 2005-03-05 12:20:27 UTC
/opt/ltsp-4.1/i386 is created, but missing the following mount points:
oldroot proc home dev

Also missing are the following symlinks:
mnt -> /tmp/mnt 
var -> /tmp/var 


Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install ltsp via 'emerge ltsp'
2. Configure everything to boot a client.
3. Boot a client

Actual Results:  
Lots of issues.  First off is an issues doing 'pivot_root' due to missing
'oldroot'.  Other issues are caused for each missing dir.


The following fixed the issue:
cd /opt/ltsp-4.1/i386
mkdir oldroot proc home dev
ln -s /tmp/mnt mnt
ln -s /tmp/var var

There seems to have been some other directory error as well - some files were installed into /tftboot instead of /tftpboot. Seems to be fixed now.
