> Apparently initscripts assumes the existance of tmpfs:
Yes, it does, to mount /dev/shm/ during boot among other things, and
recently to mount /lib/init/rw/. Is your kernel missing tmpfs
support? If this is the case, do this patch work? How is /dev/shm/
mounted on your system if tmpfs isn't supported?
