Bug#336612: yaird: Fails to parse fstab
Package: yaird
Version: 0.0.11-10
Severity: important
When attempting to create an initrd image, yaird failed with the
following error:
yaird error: malformed line in /etc/fstab:16 (fatal)
Line 16 of /etc/fstab is:
/dev/ipod /media/ipod auto noauto,user
It seems the problem is that the line doesn't contain the fields
specifying the dump frequency or fsck pass, since if I add those it gets
past that line to other lines with the same problem.
I consider this a bug, because (according to the fstab(5) man page)
these fields are optional and should be treated as containing a 0 if not
present.
