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 >Fix: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
