Description Gene Stark 1994-11-14 06:10:03 UTC 
If you type "mount -t foo /dev/wd1 /mnt" then you get an error
message:

	/usr/sbin/mount_foo for /mnt: No such file or directory

In fact, the message should refer to /sbin/mount_foo

Fix: 

Change the compiled-in pathname.
How-To-Repeat: 
	mount -t foo /dev/wd1h /mnt

From-To: open->closed

This isn't really a bug so much as it's just a slightly confusing 
error message (mount looks *also* in /usr/sbin if it can't find it 
in /sbin, so it's reporting a failure for the last path checked). 
Fixed.
