It seems I'm not the first one to notice, so FWIW, here is a patch. RH? AYT? none

Description Philip Pokorny 2001-10-27 06:56:00 UTC 
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/4.75 [en] (X11; U; SunOS 5.6 i86pc)

Description of problem:
When mkinitrd builds a ram-disk, the linuxrc script that is written has the
echo and mount commands for /proc backwards.  The mount command preceeds
the echo.  All other commands have the echo preceeding the actual command.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. mkinitrd --nocompress /tmp/foo.img 2.4.7---
2. mount -o loop /tmp/foo.img /mnt/floppy
3. cat /mnt/floppy/linuxrc


Actual Results:  mount /proc
echo Mounting /proc filesystem

Expected Results:  echo Mounting /proc filesystem
mount /proc
