Hi,

I get some error messages when I reboot my system.

FAILED TO CALCULATE DEPENDENCIES
ERROR: Problem starting needed services
"checkfs" was not started
ERROR: Problem starting needed services
"localmount" was not started
ERROR: Problem starting needed services
"clock" was not started
ERROR: Problem starting needed services
"bootmisc" was not started

When the system is booted, it looks like everything works fine, exept the clock.

I have tested the status of checkfs, localmount, clock and bootmisc with "/etc/init.d/checkfs status" and all services are started.

What have I done to my system?

Thanx 4 help!

I get this error sometimes when I forget to setup fstab correctly. Make sure that all of your filesystems are listed correctly.

Hope this helps

I have the same problem. Some things don't mount mount at boot (they do NOT have a 'noauto' flag) but they mount fine from the CL.

I really don't get this. It used to work fine. What exactly is "correctly"?

...Oh yeah, everything I check with status is actually running,.

Thanks,
mark

Correctly means listing the correct partition/files system. I get this error sometimes when I define the filesystem wrong. This could possibly make sense for you also, because when at the command line the mount command is suppost to autodetect the filesystem type(???).

Is this ok?
Code:

proc         /proc      proc      defaults      0 0
/dev/hda7      /      xfs      noatime,nodiratime      0 0
/dev/hda6       /home      xfs      noatime,nodiratime      0 0
/dev/hda3      none      swap      sw         0 0
/dev/cdroms/cdrom0   /mnt/cdrom   iso9660      noauto,ro      0 0
//Markb/Projects   /mnt/markb      smbfs      noauto,username=xxx,workgroup=xxx,user,gid=10,fmask=775,rw
//Markb/Downloads   /mnt/markb-downloads      smbfs noauto,username=xxx,workgroup=xxx,user,gid=10,fmask=775,rw
/dev/hda1      /boot      ext2      noauto,noatime  1 1
tmpfs         /dev/shm   tmpfs      defaults      0 0




btw, it fails to mount /home but / is ok.
I think when you call mount /dev/abd or mount /foo on the CL it looks to fstab to see what to do.
