Hi, We've had an installation report [1] for Debian Etch where a user set up a separate /boot partition. The first boot into the new system failed because the fsck on the /boot partition failed: Checking file systems...fsck 1.40-WIP (14-Nov-2006) /dev/dasda1 is mounted. e2fsck: Cannot continue, aborting. However, neither 'mount' or /proc/mounts show the /dev/dasda1 partition as mounted. I've reproduced the issue and my suspicion is that either the boot loader or the kernel is failing to release /dev/dasda1 after the kernel and/or initrd have been loaded which leads to fsck concluding that it is mounted. Cheers, Frans Pop
