I found out that default file system system type was minix.
Check out the config files and recompile.

Has anyone found a way to give the type of the file system at run time?

And how to use automounted partition from other machines via nfs ?

Try something like

    ...;type:=ufs;dev:=/dev/hda2;opts:="type=ext2"
    ...;type:=ufs;dev:=/dev/hda1;opts:="type=msdos"
    ...;type:=ufs;dev:=/dev/lmscd;opts:="type=iso9660"

I learned about that be reading the source of amd...

No problem to use automounted type:=ufs partition via nfs as far as I
know. Automounted type:=nfs via nfs: ?

1. AMD automounter and UFS

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
