Hello,
I have some jails running on ZFS, so I have to mount devfs's into them.
For this purpose, I have some similar lines in /etc/fstab:
devfs /pool/jail/ldap/dev devfs rw 0 0
Where /pool is a ZFS filesystem.
This has worked until today -when I upgraded from a previous 7-STABLE
(FreeBSD 7.0-STABLE #16: Fri Mar 7 14:30:08 CET 2008) to today's
STABLE- but not anymore.
The boot process fails with something like WARNING: $true wasn't set,
see man rc.conf (or something similar, I don't have the exact error
message, but I can reproduce if it's needed), and the problem is that
the rc scripts try to mount the devfs (and nullfs) stuff to the yet
unmounted ZFS, so /pool/jail/ldap/dev doesn't exist.
If I create them on the root filesystem, the OS boots up fine, but of
course I don't have the devfs's mounted onto ZFS, they are beneath it
(umount and mount -a solves the issue). There is a similar problem with
nullfs's as well.
AFAIK only the following has been changed in rc.d:
./dhclient
./mountcritlocal
./mountlate
neither of them seems to be able to produce this kind of malfunction.
Any ideas?
