Description Yonas Yanfa 2016-10-26 13:32:13 UTC
After installing linux-c6-6.8_1, I see:

Message from linux_base-c6-6.8_1:
Some programs need linprocfs mounted on /compat/linux/proc.  Add the following
line to /etc/fstab:

linprocfs   /compat/linux/proc  linprocfs       rw      0       0

Then run "mount linprocfs".


I could be wrong, but I think the fstab line should be:

linproc   /compat/linux/proc  linprocfs       rw      0       0

You can use any name you want.  I prefer linprocfs because then both the mount and umount commands are the same (mount linprocfs, umount linprocfs).  With 'linproc' or 'foo' only the mount command changes.  You still have to use 'umount linprocfs'.

Thanks Tijl!
