Not knowing your lilo.conf  try adding

append " devfs=mount" 

to the section for the kernel you are booting.  From 9.0 to 9.1 you may
have not been using this before now ... it's a good idea to use it.

[expert] DEVFS and /dev not matching

2003-06-09 Thread Trey Sizemore
While updating Mandrake 9.1 via urpmi, I got the following message when
lilo was getting upgraded:

Warning: '/proc/partitions' does not match '/dev' directory structure.
Name change: '/dev/scsi/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/disc' -> '/dev/sda'
The kernel was compiled with DEVFS_FS, but 'devfs=mount' was omitted
as a kernel command-line boot parameter; hence, the '/dev'
directory
structure does not reflect DEVFS_FS device names.

Just want to know where to start in attempting to fix this.

Thanks.
