Bug#367605: broken loop mount support



Package: busybox-floppy-udeb
Version: 1:1.1.2-1
Severity: important
Tags: d-i

# mount -o loop /mnt/tmp-initrd /initrd
mount: Couldn't setup loop device
mount: Mounting (null) on /initrd failed: No such file or directory

FWIW, this is on the d-i i386 boot floppy, I've checked that the loop
module is loaded, that the file exists, and that /dev/loop/[0-7] exist.

I've also reproduced it on a 2.6 system outside of d-i:

root@dragon:/home/joey/src/d-i/installer/build/tmp/floppy_boot/tree>./bin/busybox mount -o loop ../../floppy_root/initrd /mnt     
mount: Couldn't setup loop device
mount: Mounting (null) on /mnt failed: No such file or directory
