In Reply to: Re: [gentoo-amd64] /run not mounting on 3.7.10 kernel by Max Cizauskas
1 Added /run to fstab, rebooted, no effect.
2 Upgraded to 3.7.10-r1 (which is the latest kernel I have) and booted

4 Not worried about finding out what was wrong with the 3.7.10 one, I'll just
5 trash it.
6 Thanks for the help.
