This is because if devtmpfs is not available /etc/init.d/boot falls back to tmpfs for /dev. But this way /dev/console will not exist and no boot messages will be printed. Without a properly initialized /dev booting will also fail in various other ways. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
