Michele,
        Your fix to /etc/rc.4 does not appear to have solved the /etc/mtab
problem.
True the file has stopped growing in size, but it reports /proc as being
mounted when it is not.

        I recently cloned mu v7r7b to a dos partition. It worked correctly
following the first reboot but then:

cat: /proc/version: No such file or directory
Setting up server: unwanted
cat: /proc/version: No such file or directory
Setting up lpd: unwanted
cat: /proc/version: No such file or directory
Setting up diald: unwanted
cat: /proc/version: No such file or directory
Setting up crond: unwanted
cat: /proc/version: No such file or directory
Setting up ssh: unwanted
cat: /proc/version: No such file or directory
Setting up svga: configure
cat: /proc/version: No such file or directory
Setting up xvnc: configure
cat: /proc/version: No such file or directory
Setting up scsi: unwanted

That is just a sample of the reports it gave during subsequent startups.
Listing /proc shows it is empty. Mount and cat /etc/mtab show it is
mounted.
Before running loadlin, type \linux\etc\mtab displays:

/proc /proc proc rw 0 0
                       /dev/hda1 / umsdos rw 0 0
                                                none /proc proc rw 0 0

Any suggestions??

Clive
