But I guess, you either haven't mkinitrd'ed it or you don't have an initrd line
in your loader config (I can't see any difference in dmesgs diff)?


It is quite possible. All I've done was:

# make all
# make modules_install
# make install

And update of /boot/grub/menu.lst. Additionally I've tried to do it using:

# make-kpkg --initrd kernel_image kernel_headers

And installing the deb package. Please correct me if I've made any mistakes.

I didn't ask for /proc/mounts, I asked for the output of the mount
command with no arguments, which prints the contents of /etc/mtab. I
was thinking that /etc/mtab might show the partitions as mounted even
though they are not, which could be why mount is complaining.


Here you are, this is output of 'mount' while in recovery mode using
kernel 2.6.18.1

$ mount
/dev/hda3 on / type ext3 (rw,errors=remount-ro)
proc on /proc type proc (rw)
/sys on /sys type sysfs (rw)
varrun on /var/run type tmpfs (rw)
varlock on /var/lock type tmpfs (rw)
udev on /dev type tmpfs (rw)
devpts on /dev/pts type devpts (rw,gid=5,mode=620)
devshm on /dev/shm type tmpfs (rw)
/dev/hda1 on /boot type ext3 (rw)
/dev/hda5 on /usr type ext3 (rw)

As you can see, no trace of /dev/hdb1.

Best regards,
Jano
