Description of problem: Summary says it all. The two WARNINGS I get from running the discovery tool on my Longs Peak are: WARNING: unable to read from /dev/hda WARNING: usbdevfs not mounted! ... the first one makes sense, there's no CD in the drive. The second one, however, appears to be a bug because mount(1) says it IS mounted: # mount /dev/cciss/c0d0p2 on / type ext3 (rw) none on /proc type proc (rw) none on /sys type sysfs (rw) none on /dev/pts type devpts (rw,gid=5,mode=620) usbdevfs on /proc/bus/usb type usbdevfs (rw) none on /dev/shm type tmpfs (rw) /dev/md0 on /home type ext3 none on /prod/sys/fs/binfmt_misc type binfmt_misc (rw) sunrpc on /var/lib/nfs/rpc_pipefs type rpc_pipefs (rw) test.lsy:/pbfd on /store type nfs (rw,nolock,addr=<deleted>) Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): # rpm -q rhr2-rhel4 rhr2-rhel4-0.9-14.9b
what's in /proc/mounts?
# cat /proc/mounts rootfs / rootfs rw 0 0 /proc /proc proc rw,nodiratime 0 0 none /dev tmpfs rw 0 0 /dev/root / ext3 rw 0 0 none /dev tmpfs rw 0 0 none /selinux selinuxfs rw 0 0 /proc /proc proc rw,nodiratime 0 0 /proc/bus/usb /proc/bus/usb usbfs rw 0 0 /sys /sys sysfs rw 0 0 none /dev/pts devpts rw 0 0 /dev/cciss/c0d0p1 /boot/efi vfat rw,nodiratime,fmask=0022,dmask=0022 0 0 none /dev/shm tmpfs rw 0 0 /dev/md0 /home ext3 rw 0 0 none /proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc binfmt_misc rw 0 0 sunrpc /var/lib/nfs/rpc_pipefs rpc_pipefs rw 0 0 test.lsy:/pbfd /store nfs rw,v3,rsize=8192,wsize=8192,hard,tcp,nolock,addr=test.lsy 0 0
hmm, mount shows... usbdevfs on /proc/bus/usb type usbdevfs (rw) ...while /proc/mounts shows... /proc/bus/usb /proc/bus/usb usbfs rw 0 0 note the fstypes don't agree. Not certain if that's the cause; from what I see in the current code either of those should satisfy; I'll go ahead and change that to looking for /proc/bus/usb being mounted instead of the filesystem. Which is less code anyway, though some what less accurate aswell; but if one mounts something on /proc/bus/usb that isn't kernel usb I have little emotion for bad things happening in the cert suite. :)
corrected in CVS
HP asks that this be added to the rc1 blocker list. Status above is "fixed in CVS" so I believe the Bug should be in MODIFIED state.
*** Bug 139517 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
fixed in rhr2-0.9-14.9f (eg. fixed in CVS)
Cannot verify this fix without a fix to bug 142432
Fix confirmed in 0.9-14.9i.
Now that I've worked around bug 142432 I have confirmed the fix. Thx!
