Actual Results: Updating /etc/fstab invalid line in /proc/partitions: '' [FAILED] Expected Results: Updating /etc/fstab [ OK ] Additional Information: In /var/log/messages, updfstab: invalid line in /proc/partitions: '' Disk subsystem is dual-IDE in RAID-1 configuration with ext3 filesystem /etc/sysconfig/harddisks has following enabled: EIDE_32BIT=3 EXTRA_PARAMS="-q -k1 -q -X66"
Can you attach your /etc/fstab?
Below. I prettied it up a little i.e. spaces to tabs and fitted each entry onto a single line. If it's a parsing error, it should be a little more robust. LABEL=/ / ext3 defaults 1 1 LABEL=/home /home ext3 defaults 1 2 LABEL=/tmp /tmp ext3 defaults 1 2 LABEL=/usr /usr ext3 defaults 1 2 LABEL=/var /var ext3 defaults 1 2 none /proc proc defaults 0 0 none /dev/pts devpts gid=5,mode=620 0 0 none /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0 /dev/hda2 swap swap defaults 0 0 /dev/hdc2 swap swap defaults 0 0 /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom iso9660 noauto,owner,kudzu,ro 0 0 /dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy auto noauto,owner,kudzu 0 0
Should be fixed in kudzu-0.99.50-1.
Still getting this error in Redhat 7.3, kudzu 0.99.52, approx 1 in 10 bootups.
