To followup on the help that I got and to clarify. I actually had an fstab file in /etc. the problem in my case turned out to be that the pass option was zero. was: # <file system> <mount point> <type> <options> <dump> <pass> /dev/hd0s12 / ext2 rw 1 0 is: # <file system> <mount point> <type> <options> <dump> <pass> /dev/hd0s12 / ext2 rw 1 1 I suppose the problem revolves around the dependency on an mtab, but mtab isn't quite there yet for the HURD, AFAIK? Is this a fair assumption? Thanks so much for the help though. Much better behaviour. -- Hope springs eternal! /^\ \ / ASCII RIBBON CAMPAIGN X AGAINST HTML MAIL / \ _______________________________________________ Help-hurd mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/help-hurd
