That is a problem whe you have several 'none' device filsystems:
none /proc proc defaults 0 0
nome /dev/pts devpts gid=5,mode=0620 0 0
nome /dev/shm tmpfs defaults,size=128M 0 0

Many filesystem utils just report 'problem with none', and you get
confused (they report the device, and it is 'none', as 'could not mount
none' ????).

All that filesystems accept also its filesystem type instead of 'none'.
I even read it is good practice:

procfs /proc proc defaults 0 0
devpts /dev/pts devpts gid=5,mode=0620 0 0
tmpfs /dev/shm tmpfs defaults,size=128M 0 0

See Configure.help in kernel-source/Documentation. Look for tmpfs.
