Hi,
since not too long I have a problem when cloning a Gentoo system
on to a machine with identical hardware.
I copy / /usr and /LOCAL to the new machine, edit several files in /etc
rebuilt the kernel and reinstall grub:0. Furthermore I have adapted the
fstab file in the initramfs.
On the very first boot the cloned system fails to mount all file systems
even /dev/pts which is a bit problematic when doing all this from
remote.
I get PTY allocation request failed on channel 0
Luckily I still can use the console on the remote system although I
don't
get a prompt.
Just doing
mount -a
and rebooting seems to fix the problem.
Still, I'm interested what's going there?
Many thanks for a hint,
Helmut.
