SUMMARY - can't mount /proc

The answer was to add "options PROCFS" to my /sys/conf/SYSTEMNAME file.

As suggested, I added it to the file, did a doconfig, copied the new kernel
to / and rebooted - life is good again!

Hi,

I've got a problem on a 4.0D, Patch Kit 3 system...

When the system boots (the blue screen stuff) it produces an error trying to
mount the /proc directory. (It goes by fast and I can't remember the exact
message!)

But, once the system is up, if I try to mount /proc, I get the following:

# /usr/sbin/mount -t procfs /proc /proc
/proc on /proc: No such device or address

Any idea what this means?

Thanks,

Jim
