>Description:
I executed /sbin/mount_mfs to mount MFS, but the attempt was failed
because the FreeBSD kernel was not configured with MFS support.
Though this is my fault, I found a bug in the kernel at the attempt.
/sbin/mount_mfs outputs no error message and exits with the exit
code 0.
I think an error message is required and the exit code shuold be
non-0.
# /sbin/mount
/dev/sd0a on / (local)
/dev/sd0f on /var (local)
/dev/sd0e on /usr (local)
# /sbin/mount_mfs -s8192 /dev/sd0s1b /mnt && echo succeeded
succeeded
# /sbin/mount
/dev/sd0a on / (local)
/dev/sd0f on /var (local)
/dev/sd0e on /usr (local)
#
>How-To-Repeat:
Configure the kernel without MFS support, and try /sbin/mount_mfs
