I recently installed the AMD automounter on my linux box, but
am having problems getting it to automount my local (ext2)
filesystems. I usually mount /dev/hdb3 on /home/evil from the
fstab, but I want to NFS automount some partitions on /home/<whatever>
also. I created a file map such as:
evil type:=ufs;dev:=/dev/hdb3;fs:=${autodir}/home/${key}
<whatever> type:=nfs;rhost:=<machine>;rfs:=/home/<whatever>;\
fs:=${autodir}/home/<whatever>
AMD will mount <whatever> without any problems, but when I try to
do something with evil, I get an I/O error from mount: Bad File
Number. This only (and always) occurs when I try to use AMD to
automount a local filesystem.
I start amd with:
amd -l syslog /home /usr/local/etc/auto.master
where auto.master contains the filemap described above.
Also, I am running kernel 1.0.9 and libc 4.5.26.
To anyone who has successfully done this, I would greatly
appreciate any suggestions.
Thanks,
-Tracey
