Darrick, Prior to adding the lines in astlinux*run.conf, typing findfs LABEL=ASTURW came back unknown.
I had a look at mount as well, and checked with post "Re: [Astlinux-users] Cannot change root password (Was: How to use keydisk with UnionFS)" And was getting the same error as this; rootfs on / type rootfs (rw) /dev/root on /oldroot type ext2 (rw) /dev/hda1 on /oldroot/cdrom type vfat (ro,fmask=002,dmask=0022,codepage=cp437,ocharset=iso8859-1) none on / type tmpfs (ro) none on /proc type proc (rw) none on /dev type tmpfs (rw) none on /var type tmpfs (rw) none on /sys type sysfs (rw) usbfs on /proc/bus/usb type usbfs (rw) none on /dev/pts type devpts (rw) none on /proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc type binfmt_misc (rw) Btw, I ran genkd /dev/hdc2 to generate my keydisk.

If you HAD a key disk at one time, but no longer wish to use a separate key disk, you can manually change the file system label on that partition. First, run 'findfs LABEL=ASTKD' to determine if a key disk partition is found. If something is given (/dev/hda3 for example), you can use e2label to change that value to something else. 'e2label /dev/foo newlabel' It sounds like you have a keydisk operational and NOT unionfs, at least based on what you're saying about password changes. Please type 'findfs LABEL=ASTURW' and 'findfs LABEL=ASTKD' then report back what you see. On one of my boxes, I see this: pbx ~ # findfs LABEL=ASTURW /dev/hda2 Darrick Clara Chan wrote: > Hi, all, > > To rebuild my CF, I used the astlinux-0.6.1-via.img.gz image from Darrick's > website. > > After which, the configuration files worked great.
