At boot time , some error message displayed:
Code:
* Mounting local filesystem...
mount: mount point /proc/bus/usb does not exists
* Some local filesystem failed to mount                           [!!]
...
* Starting USB and PCI hotplugging...
** can't synthesize input events - /proc/bus/input/devices missing    [ok]
Hint: insmod errors ......


But after system booted and login, I find that /proc/bus/usb DO exists!
And I try to mount my usb flash disk directly:
Code:
mount -t vfat /dev/sdb2 /mnt/usb
cd /mnt/usb
ls -l

everything seems OK!

what's wrong?

my /etc/fstab is
Code:
/dev/sda1      /boot      ext2      noauto,noatime      1 2
/dev/sda2      none      swap      sw         0 0
/dev/sda3      /      ext3      noatime         0 1
/dev/cdroms/cdrom0   /mnt/cdrom   iso9660      noauto,ro      0 0
none         /proc      proc      defaults      0 0
none         /dev/shm   tmpfs      defaults      0 0
none         /proc/bus/usb   usbfs      defaults      0 0

on my machine, the relevant line reads
Code:
none    /proc/bus/usb   usbdevfs        noauto 0 0

anyway, after you've booted up and your usbstick is mounted, what is the output of mount?

The error message is:
Code:
* Mounting local filesystem...
mount: [b]mount point /proc/bus/usb does not exists[/b]
* Some local filesystem failed to mount                           [!!]


Mount point /proc/bus/usb is not found!

That is so strange, because it is right there after system is booted!
