>Organization:
	Amiga installers anonymous
>Environment:

System: NetBSD jocelyn.sub-etha.wtal.de 1.5W NetBSD 1.5W (DRACOISDN) #51: Thu Jul 26 21:33:11 CEST 2001 is@jocelyn.sub-etha.wtal.de:/var/obj/kernel/DRACOISDN amiga
Architecture: m68k
Machine: amiga
>Description:
	mount -u /kern/rootdev /, as executed by the Amiga install 
	miniroot (when rootdev is the embedded md), fails:

	mount: partition `/kern/rootdev' is not available on disk

>How-To-Repeat:
	E.g., try to install 1.5.1 on Amiga. First reported by Lars
	Hecking <lhecking@nmrc.ie> on the port-amiga mailing list.
>Fix:
	workaround: explicitly use mount -t ffs ... 
	but it looks from parts of the code like mount is supposed to fall
	back to ffs in case of error, and it doesn't.

 forget the mfs/md part. It is a simple sd0b (or friends). The problem,
 however, is real.
