Kernel query
I’ve just installed kernel 2.4, but on
y startup I get error message: “mount fs I type devpts not supported by kernel”.
My question is, vvhich configuration option allovvs support of devpts? seaodyssey, from the forums
‘devpts’ is a Virtual filesystem vvhich stores ali the pseudo terminal devices, and is usually mounted on /dev/pts. You need to compile in support for ‘Unix98 PTY support’, vvhich is usually kept at the default value of 256, as vvell as insert a line in to /etc/fstab to make sure that /dev/pts is mounted at boot time before anything can try to use the PTYs. none /dev/pts devpts gid-5,mode=620 0 0 A reboot of the machine into the nevv kernel should solve the problem.
