This is probably due to the changes in the handling of /etc/mtab in
the latest shared libraries.
Try removing any "rdev" command from your /etc/rc script. Make sure
that the root device is correctly specified in /etc/fstab, and then
you should just be able to use the sequence
rm -f /etc/mtab
touch /etc/mtab
/etc/mount -av
to set up the /etc/mtab correctly in /etc/rc.
